17600, another fuel pressure question???
Posted by Eclipze97, Mar-13-02 12:00 PM
Well, I found out that my idle fuel pressure was around 80-90 psi. So, I adjusted to 55 psi and drove to school about 20 miles, now when i checked it again, it was back up to 80psi. First off, no matter what the idle fuel pressure was, my egt's and a/f were normal like always. So, do you think i affected anything cuz i must of drove around for at least a couple of months at 80 psi idle fuel pressure. And since i'm sure it's the fuel adjuster that came with the hahn kit, since they are not the most reliable things, what should i get to replace whatever it's called i need to replace,lol sry but i don't know all the terms yet.

Either way...trash that damn HRC FPR. A 55 to 80 psi jump at idle sucks. That is really unacceptable. You should not have to adjust fuel pressure everytime you drive.

Didn't Cartech come out with a new FPR (4th gen)? Is HRC including these in their kits now?

(I don't know if this is the correct pic)

OMG! Please tell me that's what HRC is shipping me right now!!!! They said they have a "new design, billet, not cast" FPR... I'm a loser, but if that thing works... ahh im a happy boy!

This is what I have now (the sucky random one):

yea, the billet one is the new one, and the pressure variances are supposedly solved with this one.

did hahn send you a new one free? or did you just buy another one?

I have the billet one and I've had my HRC kit for about a year now. I never had any problems with it, but my question is. Will I be able to run 550's with my AFC, boosting over 12psi with that FPR. How adjustable is it?
