Well I'm having trouble with my idle it's too rich! I am runnig 450 injectors(2g turbo one's) with the resistors I have the missing link and apex safc2 along with a wally 255hp and 1:1 fuel press reg.
I'm thinking it's the press reg. the damm thing raises it self! every once in awhile I have to lower the presure, can some one give me a few suggestions. I know about the sfmu but it's kind of out of my budget so I need other alternatives. Thanxs in advance!
Status- Need to do break-in...
Try not to challenge me, I'd rather tie up than lose. Either way you NEVER WIN.... - Me..

1:1 regulator??? Are you MSnS'd or Portfuelere'd?
I could be wrong, but I think when I ran 440's, I was using a 8:1 or something like that...
But besides the point, if your regulator is raising on its own, I would say its junk. I would get an SFMU, budget or not if you wanna fix the car, and also ditch the fucking Missing Link and get an FCD (I can get you one made). The ML's are garbage, I dont care what anyone says. Thats why people turn to me for an FCD

No I have just an Safc 2, I really think it's the reg., And the fact that the vibartion (prothane mounts) seems to slowly raise the presure makes it worse. I have to lower the presure on the reg once or twice a week cuz it goes up like 5-4psi I have it at 24-25 Should I lower it more?

If you plan on getting msns or portfueler then get a good 1:1 regulator if your going to use an fmu or sfmu(some sort of a rising rate regulator) then you can NOT use a 1:1 regulator.

Yea, he needs like a 8:1 or something along those lines roughly.
When I had 440's, my idle pressure was around 18psi and I was leaned out like -18/-20% on my AFC still.
I think your using the wrong regulator though man.

Well I do know that I shuold use a diff reg.. But don't know what ratio will be good, I was offered a 7:i vortec and a 12:1 wich might work for me? if any?

It depends on the size injectors that you are going to use. If stock and only boosting 7 psi then use a 12:1, there is a ton of info in the archives, just try searcing. There is a mathmatical formula to find out what ratio for you to use.
