How to find out what pressure to run at the rail with 550's --Dustin???--
Reason why I ask Dustin is because I know he runs a hondata with 550's.
How do I figure out what pressure to adjust my SX 1:1 regulator at?
I have the hondata 3B and the 550's. Running 6.5 - 11 psi. boost.
Is this a kinda of trial and error thing that I need to address when Im on the dyno. And before i get on the dyno just listen for detonation and keep a look at my a/f gauge --no EGT yet.
I feel kinda dumb right now, I should know how to figure this out.

Hmm, I'm running 50psi fuel pressure (atmospheric, with vaccuum hose off).
It doesn't really matter, you have to tune for fuel delivery with the hondata anyways. Higher static fuel pressure will just flow more fuel per injector on time...

Dustin, are you running an Endyn modded blower with 22 psi on it or just a 22psi pully on the stock blower? Kind of a silly question, but I was just wondering... Another thing... is your best time posted in your signature with those mods or were you being funny? Not trying to DIS, but 22 psi and NOS should net more then a 14.8... Course if you were spinning the whole track I wouldn't care about the time either.
Sorry if I was being rude... didn't mean to be...
Thanks in advance

[Dustin- what do u mean by "vaum line off" ?]
He means with the vacume line off the pressure regulator. In otherwords what pressure would be at 0 psi of boost and 0" of mercury... ATMOSPHERIC.
BTW... the signature was funny... was wondering if it was a joke, but I've seen some outrageous **** out there that runs poor times... take the new RSX for instance...

Because you set atmospheric baseline fuel pressure... else the vacuum of your motor will lower the fuel pressure and it will be set inaccurately.

Oh I didn't shave it myself, I had a local shop install the shaved engine.
I don't like tweaking stuff under the hood myself, I leave it to those who are much more experienced.

the shaving foam management on those gillette turbo razors really sucks... i'm going for a standalone myself.
