Mr2 turbo shooting flames problem!

Hi guys see video below of what it was doing ALOT

Finaly got around to driving the mr2 out for atleast 45min.. My mate was behind me saying i was shooting flames for long periods of time when getting into boost.i recently upgraded to a berk dp and exhaust and run 16psi of boost on my ct26..the car also bubbles abit on deceleration now. Boosts fine, temps are good.

Having a manual boost controller i also took it down to 16psi from 18psi which is what i jave been running for a while and the guy before me got it tuned too before the drive. I have upgraded fuel system and a/w intercooler setup

In saying that ct26 shouldnt boost past 15-16 without being inefficient right? I do also notice slight loss in power from dropping the boost. Is it now running too rich me adjusting the boost from the original tune?

Question:
How do i stop/minimize the flamage? Also is 18psi ok for ct26 with my upgrades?

    I would suggest its running way to rich, hence the over fueling / flames.
    If it's been tuned at 18psi, then return it, does it have the flame issues when running to 18psi?
    18 is way high for a ct26, unless it has been high flowed. Normally they are good for maximum 15psi, but loose puff over 5k rpm.

    Thats the thing it only does the flames after long drives once its well warm(in this case 45min)And i havnt driven it that long(being 45min) with the 18psi boost setting, after researching the psi limit of the ct26 i dropped it asap,also how can u tell if its high flowed?

    Short trips round town i havnt noticed flames but in saying i cant see aswell but pedestrians arnt going crazy telling me about it haha

    It has an aftermarket microtech ecu, il need to get it tuned up ay?
