fuel pressure on HPT I spent the day researching where to tap into the ECM with my fuel pressure gauge so I can read and log in with HPT. I decided to go with the fuel tank pressure input since I'm no longer using it. Pin red 64. So I just cut the wire and sent it over to my fuel pressure sensor. Made a custom PID and figured out the equation via trial and error. Success. [PID.6420]*36-19
I thought you were on stock injectors?
Have you considered doing some parker push-lok hose for a feed, and return through the factory hard line? That would really open up your restriction. you MIGHT have a 100 bucks in stuff, i may even have a bunch of pushlok crap from my GTO i could send you.
Hell i even have the fitting that adapts the hardline to -an. I can send these to you.

Can you post some more of the data log, or maybe send it to me for your fuel pressure scan. I have mine going in through the HPtuners port (or whatever it's called) and the data is noisy. I can't beleive my fuel pressure jumps around as much as it's reading.

Kyle, your the kind of friend to have hahaha.
I'm using my 60# Deka's from the GTO.
For whatever reason, I just never felt right running fuel hose under the car. Hell, I wasn't gonna run the Hotwire kit until I got my bucket open and there was a burnt wire inside it. Post 104. I'm sure I should have but I didn't, and now my evap is converted over and I'm using its fuel tank sensor input for fuel pressure so screw it. But I do appriciate your generious offer. I am gonna have to go to a FMU with adjustable reference port. Or just live with 45 psi cause I can get 9ish AFR with that anyway.
I can always turn up the base pressure and that would also minimize my return restriction. Anyway....It works, It's just not perfect, $30 regulator. With hose and gauge. hahaha

Have you considered running all new fuel line, and using the stock fuel line as a return? I did 3/8 push lock hose with A/N fittings for my new fuel line, and then attached my FPR straight to my old stock fuel line as a return. I removed the fuel filter of course. You will probably have to move the FRP since the blower is there, but that is an option.

To be honest, I stopped reading his post after I saw injectors. I have the push lock set up on my car with a Aeromotive Fuel Filter, and Aeromotive FPR with boost ref. It is fed with Lonnies twin 255 fuel pumps and I have a SD tune with 80# injectors. I am also on E85.

Since I've got a proper fuel pump I went back to the 3" pulley yesterday. I put the hammer down today and let it wind out. I checked the high mem on the boost gauge and had hit 12# ****. I didn't have the laptop on it so I dont know how the afr was doing. I hope I didnt hurt anything
I tried looking at the log you attached, and without your config file, .cfg, it's tough to see exactly what you logged. I'm just curious to see if the data is smoother than what I'm seeing.

I know this was sometime ago but curious on what Exact S/C you bought from TorqStorm. I see they have 3 options, LS Spacing, LS Spacing with PS, and Truck Spacing.
Looking to do the same you did but wanted to get more info first. Thanks
