new update..still haven't put the temp probe in but will this week I hope. I did order 80lb injectors and have a 100mm maf. So we are going to try a retune with the new maf since I already exceeded the factory limits and install the injectors and LOWER the base fuel pressure and see what happens..Temp probe first

Good luck. Hope you finally get the problem resolved quickly (and relatively at least) inexpensively.

Well car has been sitting for a year got me a jeep wrangler so been having fun modding and 4 wheeling with that. Anyways I decided to wipe the dust off and try again. I got me a new fuel tank as this is the only thing I haven't changed. All I have left to do is swap over the secondary lines into the new one and install the rear and TT. Ill update when I finish I been taking my sweet time since I started last month. In all honesty this could all be done in a day. but mehh.

I hope it is a good trip!.
I resolved my own fuel pressure issues today. I'm not sure which one was the primary culprit, but I swapped out my racetronix walbro for an lpe walbro and replaced the fuel filter. My two least favorite jobs.

Rail psi went from 55-58 to 62-65.

After a test run, absolutely no loss of pressure at any rpm.

Now if I can get the methanol kit working right I can tune the car for real.
