What should the fuel pressure be on my engine. I have an adjustable B&M FPR, and it's set to 50psi. This is my setup. 90 civic hb with 95 sohc vtec, 88-91 si ecu, injectors, and distributor. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks.

Do you know if you're running rich or lean?

Correct fuel pressure for D16Z is
40 to 47psi with vacuum hose disconnected
30 to 38psi with vacuum hose connected

Those pressures are correct, IF you are using a SOHC VYEC ECU. He has a mini-me and the ECU doesn't boost the fuel curve when VTEC kicks in. Therefore you must run richer or high fuel pressure settings.
