Help need fuel advice???
I have a 8.5 compression Lsvtec
-milled B16 head .24
-stock injectors and fuel pump
-turbo has been placed on hold do to financial problems, but I still need a daily driver.
? is what is a good fuel pressure for that low of compression?
-symptoms, it is at 45psi right know with a civic pump, car chokes on fuel when turned on and at full throttle car back fires so much that it hesitates,
only readings I have are from the A/f guage and it is rich when gas is mashed
-timming about 17 degrees
thanks If I can geet it running right car feels like at least Monday B16 power
thanks Justin

Put the PSI at 40 psi and tune it from there. I only trust wideband A/F mixture gauges. Regular A/F mixture gauges like Autometers only know rich or lean, they aren't exact.
