I expect your fuel pressure regualtor needs adjusting as the cossie pump will be delivering the fuel faster and at a higher pressure.

Chances are its over- fuelling at idle

as you look from the front it WILL be at the right hand side at the end of fuel rail silver/grey in colour it may still have the seal in the middle(will have to remove that and use an allen key to adjust)
