Fuel pressure???
« on: December 23, 2009, 05:19:31 PM »
what should my fuel pressure be???
i think i need a fuel pressure regulator

is it worth getting an ajustable fpr???
if so, would there be any noticeable gains from upping the fuel pressure???

i dont kno if this matters but.... i did the mess under the intake mod, mustang injectors, throttle heater plate delete.... and it has a k&n cone filter with heatsheild...

thanks for any help/opinions

Your fuel pressure should be 3 bar which is about 43 psi, as for and adjustable I do not think you would see any gains on a stock engine or a stock ecu that has adaptive learning.
