hey guys sup finally after the car being 3 months in the shop it is finally out... well not really still having problem with the SFMU, guys i dont' know what the problem is but i se the static fuel pressure and does not go any higher than 43psi without vacum. the screw is all the way in also. it can't go in any more what is wrong ????.


I have the stock spring that came in there and the largest disk that is the 3.26 disk that comes with it.

I have the optional hard spring but i have not installed it yet ??? what do you guys think waht to do to find out what the problem is ???

here are some pics of when the car was being worked on , later tomorrow ill post the whole complete setup and see what you guys think

www.toptenniss.com/install

please guys help me out i don' tknow what to do to make the pressure go higher to 55 or 50 at least

member i will be running 7psi on a t3/t4 with stock injectors and front mount intercoolers.

thanks

laters

please give me feedback what do you guys think of that custom manifold.

It was a pain to make it ahahahaah

Sounds like the stock reg is still working.

Where the F do I get stage2 piping....that's nice as hell.

What kind of intercooler is that? I wish I could find an intercooler with end tanks on the same side.

In order to get higher idle fuel pressures, you must use the optional short, dark spring. DONT fully tighten down the top adjustment bolt on the SFMU, as this can damage it. The short dark spring should let you run a higher idle fuel pressure. Be sure there is no vac leaks at teh SFMU at all either. Also, dont over tighten the SFMU lid when you put it back together. Snug them up evenly.

its all custom maid man that is why it came out nice eheheheh


hey guys ok i got the optional spring installed base presure went higher but the car is not boosting damit only starts boosting on 3rd gear and the car runs super lean with a base pressure of 60 damnnnn i don't know what could be the problem please the SFMU guru help i don't know i may have something wrong with it ???.

Hey SFMU guys i have a quesion when the car start boosting 1,2,3,4 -7psi does the fuel pressure should be at over 100 after is hit 1psi or will it gradually get up there ????


Also here is what i got i know is not a star or Hanh kit but i try to copy the star setup.

I have missing link, sfmu with hard spring and the largest disk the 3.2, with frontmount and stock injectors, t3/t4 with a .63ar in the back and .57 in the front wich is how the star kit comes right the turbo on it ????....

Its really wierd that the pressure is not rising becuase i got the hard spring and the largest disk what could be wrong, it is only hitting like 80psi of fuel ???/ did i do something worng


thanks

i am really worried allthis moeny and car not working

i need all the hlep i can get

thank very much guys

By the way i don't knwo if this could be a problem but does GAS go bad if in the tank for too long that gas in there has been sitting there for about 4 months or more ????

maybe your fuel pump can't keep up with your fuel demand. I hope not cause i have the same one. Maybe a fuel filter

i am using the walboro the intank 255 high pressure that many people use and seems to be effective.

Could the SFMU be bad i bought it from someone used

DsM Power Soon to be turbo yahhhhhh

do you still have the stock fpr on? if so you must remove it.. I had the same problem. if you have the SFMU you can't have the stock fpr conected.

Also, you asked about the rate in which the fuel pressure will rise at certain psi levels. The fuel pressure should rise based on the level of boost the SFMU see's. How much it raises depends on how you set it up.

I suggest you look at the post about Fuel Flow with the Walbro pump. Without bigger injectors, you may not get enough flow. At 100-110 psi, the Walbro pump has very low flow rates. Might look into bigger injectors. You should be able to find some 30# squirters for less than 100 bucks.

a big problem that i am encountering is that the car is running really lean even when it is not boosting i am not sure what could be the problem ???


can you guys give me ideas, the guy set the base pressure at 70 since it was running lean and still is runnig lean even when it is nto boosting and it should not be. on the A/F gauge does not even go pass the red it stays in the red. could it be that the o2 sensor is connected bad ??? or something ??

please help...

thanks

i really apreciate it

Edit: By the way, an A/F gauge only works at full throttle, the rest of the time it just cycles.

Well, if you're lean, give it more fuel. What's your idle fuel pressure?

Try a different ground wire for your A/F gauge. You couldn't possibly be that lean if your fp @ boost is 70 psi. 70 does sound a little low. Try another ground. If it still shows lean, add some more fuel pressure. If it doesn't change the gauge, get a new guage, or keep trying different grounds.

that is high for iddle presusre 70psi.

Now i knwo the gauge is reading right becuase when i open my hood my turbine housing was while showing that it was running lean and the car will not move no wehre.


Now the turbo only seeing boost in 3rd gear, do you guys think is too big ???

DsM Power Soon to be turbo yahhhhhh

Your idle pressure is not 70 psi. Should be somewhere around 45-55 psi. At 5 psi of boost, I think you want to be somewhere around 75-85 psi of fuel pressure..

As for only boosting in 3rd gear, well... I have no idea how that is possible.
