I have a JDM H22 FPR on my B20B and its at 40 psi during idle.... sounds like i need a B+M Regulator aswell.

yeah basically to use stock 240cc injectors to make the estimated power of 150hp (stock crank power) you need 45 psi on fuel pressure....

i could also drop in some 270cc's with 35psi id be right there....

Back from the WAY dead...sorry.

I installed the fuel pressure gauge to check what pressure I'm at before I installed the adjustable fpr and I believe my fuel pressure is way low.
26 psi? This is while the car was running. Shouldn't I be around 45 psi?
I'm using stock 240cc injectors with what I believe is an LS fuel rail on a B20Z2 motor in my '98 Civic Ex running a P75 ecu.

Fuel pressure reads 32psi with the vacuum hose disconnected at idle. I'm gonna throw the fpr on tonight and get it up to 45psi.
