Default Stalling when I turn?

SO I got a new carb and it was backfiring because the fuel pressure was too high. I cranked it down and now the car wants to die on me when I take a turn. Could I have cranked it down to low? Thanks!

float level either too high causing flooding as gas spills over in a turn, or too low causing starvation as gas sloshes away from metering pickup or jets
