Hey guys, sorry couldn't really find a straight answer to my question, so here it goes.

I know that stock fuel PSI should be about 43psi with the VAC off. My engine is pretty much stock but i have turned up the boost to about 11psi. What fuel pressure should i be running at? I have it set to 45psi with the VAC off. I just don't want to run lean..


I'm using an Aeromotive FPR w/ Gauge.


here is my setup:

My setup:

Rebuilt series 1 RB25
Stock internals
Stock turbo @ 11psi
Stock Injectors
Stock MAF
HKS Bov (not recirculated)
Greddy Intake Manifold
Walboro 255lph fuel pump
Aeromotive FPR
Z32 Fuel filter
FMIC
Stock ECU

Are you getting it tuned? If you are getting it tuned then stock fuel pressure should be plenty

No, at least not for a while.

I would just run close to stock psi. I mean you can turn up the fuel pressure but its not recommended. 7 or 8 psi is plenty until you can get it tuned for air coming in.

7 or 8 psi? You mean 7 or 8 more than stock is alright? Fuel wise.

I wouldn't boost past 10 psi just to be on the safe afr wise. Just wait till you get it tuned before turning the boost up anymore than you do now.

eh?

Grab a wideband.
Otherwise l doubt 11psi on the stock turbo with a little bump in fuel pressure is going to hurt the engine itself.
The turbo on the other hand...
