#60855, "Cold weather & fuel pressure changes"


          

I have a hahn stage 2 with stock injectors (have 30# but haven't installed them), the inline pump & Walboro 255, and the Cartech FPR (I know, I know). My idle pressure is set at 55 and static goes up to 60 (I believe this is where your at 0 on the boost gauge). It's starting to get cold out now and I notice when I first start my car the past couple days I'm getting about 62-65psi at idle. The weird thing is my static is still 60. When I push the gas the pressure goes down to 60, then when boost hits it rises like normal. My EGT's and A/F's are fine in boost. Is this normal with cold weather, is the Craptech somehow compensating for the colder (more compressed) air?

I'm ordering a SFMU on Friday. Was hoping to wait for HRC and their new mystery system but I can't wait anymore.
