Default Easy fix for high rpm fuel pressure drop.

I know alot of people have had problems with this. Mine was holding 60psi until about 5500rpm then taking a dive to 25psi. All I did was install a Walbro intank pump and now I'm holding 60psi to 7000rpm. I know alot of people have have gone to great lengths to fix this problem but I guess I got lucky. Just thought I'd share.

Yeah I was running the stock pump when I had that problem. Other than that all I've done are 42# injectors. I'm getting 6#'s of boost.

Mine used to do the same thing. At 5400-5500 it was like the car was hitting a huge headwind. With my old dry shot nitrous, it would also take out alot of timing too I think.

Racetronix 340GSS was my solution.
