Re: BLM
You have the right injectors? What flow rating are they?
Is the ECM programmed for the correct size injectors?
How old is your O2 sensor?
What is your actual fuel pressure reading?

Re: BLM
a blm of 120-136 is usually ok, but being at 108, you should look into replaceing the O2 sensor, plugs, wires, cap, rotor... simple stuff shoud fix your problem. oh and dont just adjust your regulator all the way out, set it to 43-48 and then go from there. if you still have problems after you have checked these things, get back to us. its always best to check the simple things first. good luck.

Re: BLM
If you have a miss, bad plugs or such, you'd have excess O2 in the exhaust, and the BLM would go the other way. Remember, the stock narrow band sensor measures O2, not mixture !
The more likely scenario for bad parts ( you have not said what tuning software you're using, whether you can or have burned a chip and such ) is a poisoned sensor.
If you've done ANYTHING and used non-O2 safe silicone anywhere, the sensor is probably toast. They'll last about ten seconds in the presence of silicone. Maybe less.
They're pretty easy to check with a propane torch and a voltmeter on the bench.
