wierd. Mine is a 95 and just today I added my new injectors and hacked my pressure regulator, Mine goes below 20 psi. Would the disks/springs make a differance?

Use the static screw on top to adjust your idle pressure. The vacuum screw is to set the point where the raising rate begines if i remember correctly.

Yeah be sure you are turning out the top allen bolt on the SFMU. If I remember correctly, when i put in larger than stock injectors, I had to use the longer, silver spring inside the SFMU to get a lower idle fuel pressure..Also, leave your vac line connected to the SFMU when setting your idle fuel pressure. I know the directions say to disconnect it for setting the static pressure(0 psi), but it has always worked out fine by adjusting it to set idle fuel pressure, and the static pressure at 0 psi is always where it needs to be.

Since we are on the topic of SFMU, I have a question...
Today RxR_Eclipse and I pressure tested my system in preparation for boost, and I am getting a leak out of the little boost port...
should I block that or what...

and while we were at it, I took the opportunity to do the FPR mod.
