I understand you are probably typing this from your phone, but your question is almost unreadable as the grammar is horrid and jumbled together...

If you have a ****ty ebay gauge then how can you be sure you are running lean?

why are you running and MBC if you're not tuned? chances are you probably cranked it up and that's why the car is running lean

Could be a vacuum line that disconnected on the intake manifold, check around it to see if theres any unconnected lines...that caused my car to run lean under boost
