DIsapointed2
Hey guys some of you read my post about my car and how it only made175whp. This is the update, as you know my fuel pressure at idle was 10psi, and I was only boostin .3 bar. I took my car to autolink yester day to have chris take a look at it. He suggested i use a intank fuel pump as opposed to the inline. He installed that and fixed the low fuel pressure problem. My car now sits at 43psi at idle. I also told him about the low boost problem and asked why it isnt boosting 7lbs like it should. He checked all my hoses and found no leaks or anything. What could be making me boost only .3 bar, what is that like 4 or 5 lbs? could it be my stock cat+2/14 exhaust??Should I just buy a boost controller and set it to 7 psi?

Tyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy fixing the vacuum hosing hey hows the car feel now? Any better? Let me know when your ready to boost more. And actually the fuel pressure was at 80 psi at idle. Those dipshits thought it was 10 psi because the gauge wasnt reading correctly due to the fuel pump sucking the filter dry. Gooooooooooooooooooooooo Sleeeeeper!

Re: DIsapointed2 (proclassracer)
you are right, I remember chris saying the fuel pressure was at 80 psi at idle. THe car feels quicker, its boosting almost .4 bar. IM going to have them fix the vacuum hosing too, chris thought that might be the problem. Autolink
