Well I been gathering parts for mycar ., supras 550, fpr, walbaro fuel pump, powerfc , 3inch downpipe, a slightly bigger charge cooler for my w/a setup and next on the list is the ct20b and a tune
well today i decided i wanted to install the fpr, injectors, and the fuel pump raise the bost to 15 psi . After iam finish i start up the car and it idles good, so i let it warm up and take it for a spin. iam on second gear and decide to revved up a little , i reached 4500 rpm and the car sputters really bad. (btw this is on 8 psi) so i go home and check the fpr, and it reads 55psi. ..... I tought it should be 35-38? well now iam stumped on why my car is running bad so any help is really appreciated. -------------------- |

Your supposed to adjust it with the engine NOT running, just the fuel pump on. Thats your base pressure. If thats what your doing, then it should be set correctly, but why did you have problems adjusting it in the first place? Are you sure you installed it correctly?
