I looked around for another port before the regulator but see nowhere else to go other then the banjo on the fuel sender but that is far from accurate.

What about an
inline T sensor adapater right
after the fuel filter? That's where we splice in on the MKIV TT...

Speaking of BOV do you have the output of the BOV routed to atmosphere or is it routed back into the intake system? If the main BOV itself is leaking, that could explain your rich condition (since the air ejected through the BOV has already been metered by the MAF)...

Anyways, fired it up and it running rich right now with the cel cleared.
Afrs now at idle are 13.0-13.8 and at 1500 rpm no load afrs go to 11.8-12.5. And runs smooth no hesitation at all. But I'm sure as soon as I went down the road it would start droppin off lean again.
Any ideas greatly appreciated! The current set up jerry rig intake I made does not allow me to close the hood at all so I'm working on another setup to drive with. But those afr do not sound right to me.

Agreed.

Are you still planning to replace the oem distributor cap, just as a test?
Also, a short run with no hood shouldn't be too big of an issue, right?
