how do I regulate the fuel pressure?
Hello,
i would like to know, how do I regulate the fuel pressure regulator. Is it:
-when the car is on.
-car off
- at full throttle
- when the car is hot
Could some on tell me, and also is it true that for 1psi on the turbo is 12psi at the fuel regulator. well is a turbo car and we think he is boosting around 5psi

Regulate the fuel pressure regulator?
Is it a stock fuel pressure regulator? Is it aftermarket?
The stock regulator works off of vacuum. No vacuum = pressure regulator open fully.

Re: how do I regulate the fuel pressure?
the way the fuel pressure regulator works is that while the engine is running te regulates by how much it allows back to the tank.
an fmu is a 6-8-10-12:1 rise rate. your normal regulator is a 1:1 rise.
with the vac line off and the engine running is the most fuel pressure you will see without boost being applied.
i know my explination is assbackwards, but you dig?
