Default fuel prerssure, please help!!

I got a 1.5 litter vtec engine, intake, and straight true piping. After racing, the car leave some backfire when shifting gear. So i need more fuel pressure. I was wondering how much do I have to raise de fuel pressure???, It's like a 1.6 sohc vtec some people said. I got a stock dx fuel pump. I'm planing to get a B&M fuel flow modifier and a gauge for fuel pressure. Will an in line fuel pump will be needed???
thanks a lot !!
see ya

back firing can be caused by running too rich, too lean, or not enough back pressure. as you so blatantly stated that you have straight pipe, i'm assuming that's your exhaust. that is the cause of your backfiring. you dont have enough back pressure.

Hey Tortex do you think we are all fools????,
I Said that I got a 1.5 l Vtec engine is that enough clear?????
you know the number 1.5?? the litle one between 1.4 and 1.6????
my engine is a d15b, short as this, IT'S A 1.5 litter , and I got a Vtec head.
And no I don't have any more number comming after the d15b on my block stamp! Btw thank you for the answer but your supposition where all false Tortex.
Tell me why Ferio engine are so rare???, I can get them all day long for a stable price.

Thank jared, I don't have any kind of muffler only a glass pack, no cat, I was wanting it very Straight, with 2" stainless pipe. so to you it seem the I dosn't have enough back pressure ???
. first is this bad on performance???
. second, to get more back pressure, I will need a muffler? nope?

I think I will need an air fuel ratio gauge, will be safer and easy to adjust.
see ya

not at all, I don't have any kind of head fitting on it!, it's a d15b, comming from japan, it arrive here like this, I just dropped it in the engine bay and it worked really nice, Though I had to make all the support to make it fit right there. and was a real pain in the *** to get it wired, it was my first swap so i get here the hard way. by cutting the main wiring harness!!, **** the worst thing some one can do!!!

paste is a kind of stuff, you can buy it at the wall mart, it's polishing paste, for aluminium, stainless, and steel, it make metal very shinny,

the hose comming to the evap canister going to the firewall is connected in a solénoïd, this solenoid control the vapour comming out of the evap canister, I havn't understand it for now. but if we can find a picture of the engien bay in a civic ferio this would be a nice thing, we will be able to see hose running

scuse for the pics, I go to school and will take it tonight!,

see ya

Hey Tortex do you think we are all fools????,
no, who said that. do you think i am?

I Said that I got a 1.5 l Vtec engine is that enough clear?????
wasnt aware you threw a vtec head on it

you know the number 1.5?? the litle one between 1.4 and 1.6????
never head of it

my engine is a d15b, short as this, IT'S A 1.5 litter , and I got a Vtec head.
right as you specified in your 2nd sentance

And no I don't have any more number comming after the d15b on my block stamp!
fantastic

Btw thank you for the answer but your supposition where all false Tortex.
i couldnt tell you what i said but im sure it wasnt false. as far as what psi to run at it depeneds on what you have done and how lean or rich you want to be. you know, lean more air than fuel, rich more fuel than gas. oh right, you're not a fool i forgot.

Tell me why Ferio engine are so rare???, I can get them all day long for a stable price.
they're not

So why si that so impossible that i have one???
I guess you are the only personne to get a real one!!!,
yhea, I know, you are fantastic, and thank you for your little lesson about lean and rich, I know what is leaner or richer. I don't have any air/fuel gauge, so by posting that board, I was wanting people to post their own gas pressure depending on mod they have, and be informed on how many PSI people are running! I guess you know that you can ruin an engine by running too lean, but HEY, it's not important man, everything depend on how you want your engine to run, leaner or ritcher. And yes your previous sentences where false, I really got a d15b, 1.5l vtec engine, and if you are really interrested in the discussion read all the post over this one, you'l see what we are talking about. I bought my engine with the vtec head. I didn't " trow " any other head on it, nobody does. Do a little search, you'l find they are some good engine and that they actually exist.
see ya,
always a pleasure to talk with someone that know ABSOLUTLY nothing about the subject we are talking about!

BTW, you just said " rich more fuel than gas " I thought my engine was burning some mixed air and gas ( I am currently talking about gasoline, to avoid any miss understanding)

and what I was wanting to say about my engine by saying " I got a 1.5 l engine and it got a vtec head, " was that the vtec head was comming with the engine, and wasn't " trowed on "
