what fuel pressure are you guys putting out? I know i know it depends on injectors, ems, etc, but i wanna get a range. PSI or bars is fine.

I dunno if my fuel pressure has ever been measured per se? I'm still running a STOCK fuel pump and STOCK injectors along with the Vortech FMU. If you read that link you will see that if you're using larger injectors then you may need to make adjustments. Since I'm using the Vortech setup as it was designed (direct bolt-on without changing anything else out) with the full kit, everything is working as it should.

If you are running larger injectors and still using the Vortech FMU, you might need a recalibration kit or additional bleeder valve if you are having issues still...

Emad is running turbo xs i believe. His fuel pressure went from 5 to 3 after the fuel return system was put in. Im sure he is trying to see if he is running too lean.

I am running walbro FP, 750cc injectors, Stage 1 fuel return, Utec. Out of boost my fuel pressure roughly sits around 36-38 psi.

I never had a fuel return system/FPR, so I never kept up with my fuel pressure.
