Our cars' stock ECUs would never let us run in the "stoich" range during boost; they intend for us to run rich. A standard A/F ratio gauge should always show a rich reading on boost, or you're in trouble.
There's nothing you can do about this situation (running rich) - it is out of your control. With aftermarket fuel management and a wideband O2 sensor, you can do something about it. For now, just enjoy the safety
