Default Annoying Gas Smell at idle? WTF?!

Since I have owned this car it has had an annoying gas smeel that comes and goes at idle. If I put the HVAC controls on recirc it takes it away but I would like to get this fixed. If I start the car to warm up I get it, if I drive it and stop at a red light it comes backs, at low RPM's though it is fine. Any ideas? I am running the Giac PC16 upgrade with AWE K04 kit and the suggested injectors and FPR that came with it.

I am getting ready to swap in another K04 turbo that is larger and would like to have this resolved before doing so. Thanks

i would check the fuel rail and the injector o-rings, make sure the injectors are seated properly.
