Default Maximum fuel pressure....

Hey guys, what's the max fuel pressure that my stock 94 VTEC fuel pump can provide? I've heard a bit over 100. Can anyone verify this please! Would it be possible to run 7 psi of boost and only use an 8:1 FMU? Thanks

Ok the stock fuel pump is good for only about 75psi max.
Now are you planing to run stock injectors and a 8:1 fmu? because you will need at least a 10:1 otherwise you will run to lean.
I honestly wouldn't run more then 4psi if you plan to use a stock pump.Upgrade it is cheap insurance.

The B series pumps have an interal bypass valve that will limit them from flowing above 75 psi:



Do not attempt to boost on the stock pump unless you are running engine management (like Hondata) and big injectors (at least 440cc or more).
