If the anti tamper seal is still intact on the FPR then don't touch it.
If it's been removed then you'll need a WBO2 to set it correctly, clockwise for more fuel, anti-clockwise for less.

What injectors are fitted? Is it the standard ECU?

If its using standard injectors, and its a standard ECU you may have a faulty coolant temperature sensor.

No worries. If everything is standard and the fuel pressure regulator hasn't been tampered with you probably have a duff sensor or wiring. If the ECU thinks it -20 deg C outside you will be very rich indeed.

Good luck
