Default b16a2 fuel pressure?

yo

im from UK - was woundering what roughly (say for a stock motor) my fuel pressure should be? i have a modded B16a2 with I/H/E inlet etc etc and have recently fitted an AEM fpr and B&M gauge (to top of fuel filter)

its currently reading 60 psi with the vaccum hose attached - that sound ok?

(ive searched for the answer to this question with no luck - help is much appricated)

my question to you is, why did you get a adjustable fpr if you're setting it to stock pressure?

im not - i had a RR couple of weeks ago and i was advised to get an adjustable one as my car is leaning quite bad

i want to know standard pressure so i can have it alittle higher for now untill i get to the RR again where they'll set it up

i generally set them to read 40-43 psi at idle with the vac. line disconnected.

adjusting the FPR is really a band-aid -- it's not going to help much with the actual tuning of the car.
