Matt1878 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Adjustable fuel pressure regulator? If you have one then just get it set up properly on a rolling road Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 yeah i have one, screwing it in clockwise turns the pressure up right? and anti-clock turns it down? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Like I say, it's something that needs to be looked at on a dyno mate.. Not just a case of increasing or decreasing the pressure. It will be adjusted so that it fuels your car safely all the way through your rev range. I'm guessing your running a stock ecu, fcd and adjustable fuel pressure regulator?

EPnick22 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 i wasnt going to play about with the pressure, i know what happens if it isnt set up right lol yeah running stock ecu and those mods, fmic too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mech5107 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Put it at 2.4bar without the vacuum line and will be like stock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 i havnt got a fuel pressure guage dude, i know someone who has and ive asked to borrow it but just my luck he's leant it to his mate so god knows when ill get hold of it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 What boost pressure are you running? You can run upto 0.8 bar without adjusting the fueling at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 im running .7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Chances are its not fuel pressure at 0.7 then dude. Check the lambda, map and coolant temperature sensors are working properly mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EPnick22 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 I was thinking of replacing the lambda as the wire where it joins into the plug is a bit bent and twisted, small bit of the insulator on the wire has a bit missing too, how would i know if the map or coolant sensors arent working?

AdamB Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Get a fuel pressure gauge on there to check it, chances are if its adjustable its probably been fiddled with. Then take it from there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
