Have you done anything with the tune? Check your exhaust and make sure your O2 sensors are in and tight and you don't have any loose flanges. If your car is not tuned for the new 42# your gonna have a hard time with it, like your currently having.

Log the car while it's running and post up the log, you might have a bad O2 sensor.
