OK, I'm in the process of installing my aftermarket fuel pressure regulator.
Installation seems pretty straight forward.
However, when I come to set it what PSI can I go to?
The manual states between 38-44 PSI as standard.
Can I increase the PSI over 44, if so to what PSI?

Also, what PSI can the standard Fuel Pump cope with?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW: I have a '97 ST with standard injectors, an Injen IS2040 intake, Denso Idridium spark plugs and Magnecor KV85 spark plug wires.

West_minist thanks for the info.

I think I'll start at 40 PSI considering I have an intake on (increased air flow).
Then, after I have everything I want installed, I'll get the car dynoed and play around with the pressure to see what the best setup is.

Get a Autometer A/F Ratio meter.

That will help you. You do not really have to dyno to feel the results. Test driving and drving behind your car will let you know.

Expect some back firing, but not way too much where gas will be wasted.

I like this. smile.gif
