Default Nasty Help

The tuner is running into a problem with a loss of pressure when the car is put under a load.
Any idea's from anyone?

Correct me if I am wrong. Doesn't the fuel pump run at "X" amount of pressure all the time because it has the direct wire from the relay? If the pump isn't seeing 13.5volts could this be the reason why it is dropping off? I'm looking for any help.

If the pump is not getting the correct voltage yes you will loose pressure. what pump and setup are you running and how much power are you trying to make?

I had the same problem over there. I added a MSD boost a pump and a hot wire kit. No problems now.

I hope you get to drive that thing this year.

Whiplash...... Not sure who you are, but I will take it you know josh the owner of the car I am talking about. Give me a pm, I don't want to put out in public what the problem was.
It was not installer, nor product problem.

Nate thanks for your help. All the parts are from you, rails, reg, intake pump.

Do you have any plans to do truck systems? I have a FI 402 stroked escalade that needs some fuel.

Thinking about it just there are several different tanks for the trucks so they would need to be custom.
