Upping fuel pressure/lowering injector constant
Friday, July 14, 2006 1:03 AM
So if the stock fuel pressure is 55psi on a 2003 spec ecotec, what is the WOT fuel pressure? say its around 65psi, whats the max PSi the stock fuel pump can put out?

If the stock pump can take more pressure bump up the base pressure and keep backing down the injector constant, the higher the fuel pressure the better the atomization right?

from my underdstanding the fuel pump puts out 80PSI all the time... now the regulator is what changes based on pressure (vaccum/boost) ... correct me if im wrong people

what it goes to exactly (stock) im not sure you can get a fuel pressure gauge hooked up and see

the pressure reg is what dictates actual running pressure , pump is 80 psi max

higher fuel pressures will drop pump life

my 2.4 i droped my fuel pressure to 30 psi from 50psi , have had no problems from the lower pressure
