Re: FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
on a stock lightning/harley with stock fuel pressure regulator it should be around 32 psi at idle and should jump up to 40psi with the vac line removed.

Re: FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
If I were to tune it then I would set it to 60psi base pressure
if its already tuned though you have to set it to the pressure the tuner tuned it at.
47s are a waste stock is 42
best bet is 80lb minimum

Re: FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
ok then set the base pressure to 60 psi with the 47lb injectors.
It will take me a while to have the 80lb but when I have it, what base pressure should I have on the regular?
The other question, how do I tell the pcm that the base pressure is now 60psi? I am using ADVANTAGE III, what parameter should I change?
I attach some images to know if it is any of those parameters
Thank you very much for your help and above all patience.. I'm doing my own tune

Re: FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
you can 40 psi base with the 80s no prob or 65psi if you plan on making 800rwhp
read the fuel write up on the homepage
you have to download the injector data sheet for your injectors and then interpolate all the deltap multipliers for 60 psi
come up with all the actual values and then set the high slope in the tune to 30 lbs/hr
then take 30 and divide your actual high slope that becomes your scaling percentage
apply that to all your actual injector values other than the offset and plug that in to your tune
apply the scaling percentage to the actual maf transfer and transient fuel too.
Its covered in the fuel write up.
btw sct sucks for the eec's (2004 and older). Youd be far better off getting a quarterhorse.
