Whew! Finally after 8 months of construction and piecing together my custom turbo kit, I have finally finished it!!!! (Even though I got a blown HRC kit sitting in my garage waiting to be installed). I'll have pics of the car and the turbo soon.
I do have a problem though, When I start the car, the fuel pressure is at about 48-50 but after driving 30 minutes or so, it drops to about 40-42? I checked my lines and i made sure the nut was on tight so what do you think is causing this?

First off, I want to give a BIG thanks to MWC, basically he was the one who drove in his beautiful NISSAN sentra (his turbo RS is getting a "wace moto" installed), 3 hours up to brevard county in sunny FL to do the install.........4 times, and this was after the fact that I destroyed his vielside front bumper the first time.

Secondly, THUNDER, what can I say, I'm sorry about everything that has happened to you and anytime you need anything, dont' hesistate to give me a holler, you're still one of the turbo gurus I look up to. Thanks for getting me off the ground with this thing!!

Third, TOMMYBOY!!! Thanks for getting me the hook up on the manifold, downpipe, and piping (although, I will be using the HRC manifold as soon as I get some $$$ to rebuild the S-16g) This is the guy who went and bothered the welder at RRE everyday for about 3 wks to get started on my manny! Dude, tell me what you want to do about the stock I/C, I hardly see you anymore online.

Fourth, Jason Esi-T, Ican't believe you actaully answered each and every single one of my e-mails. I mean, this guy (Jason) basically drew me out diagrams in words, and did the whole fuel install for me in a "How to install HRC install for DUMMIES" style, and I still didnt' get it!! (that's just me). The couplings are on the way, I'll give you the tracking number as soon as I get home man!

Fifth, HRC (Bill Hahn) Hahaha, I know he must be getting sick of me calling every afternoon ordering a little fitting or asking for instructions, but seriously, for ppl who are thinking about installing the kit themselves, I would recommend the HRC kit, the tech support was awesome and Bill was so damn friendly and willing to ship whatever I needed out. (give me a few wks to get the money together for the S-16g) Also, is there a way to replace the end tank of the inline fuel pump that cracked??? I just used my friend's Walbro for the system i have now.

All in all, I love my kit, even though i'm using the t-25 right now on a tubular manifold, it still gives a good kick. If I forgot anybody else on the board that has helped me, I"m sorry, but I'm getting a itching to go out and boost a little bit right now! Later all!

<whew> i'm done!

Don't have the stock Eclipse anymore
Just a stock Gsr now,

You must be proud piecing your own kit. Sounds good. As for the FPR dropping pressure, it could be bad(?), I'm not sure though.

When my "Wace Motor" gets done I will head up there as planed so I can break it in. so dont ask me to "wace" you. lol
As far as the FPR question, I just want to say that, although it is dropping to 42 PSI at idle, the PSI under boost is still alright, correct?
And for anyone out there that might know, what or how high should the fuel preasure be at say 6 psi of boost, on a t-25? He is still well into the Rich signal on the A/F but we cant seem to get it to rise higher than 90 psi of fuel.
Thanks for the shout out Mickey, and thank you guy's for your help.
SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!MWC
