Default Fuel pressure with 150 wet

I have a Nx 150 kit on a 99 Formula.When I run on motor my fuel pressure drops to 52psi when I run on the spray it drops to 48psi and the car surges.My bottle pressure is at 1000psi.Any idea why it surges?
thanks Steve

Do you have a FPSS? If so is it adjusted correctly?


If you post a sig we could see your mods. <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

I don`t have a fuel pressure safety switch.Does that fuel pressure sound about right?

Have you tried a smaller shot?
The surge could be the fuel pressure.For that big of a shot,I would have bottle pressure at 900psi.
Also you should run it on a Dyno to get A/F ratios.

It doesn`t surge with a 100hp shot.I also have a cam do you think that matters.

I would try a run with bottle pressure at 800psi with the 150 jets.It sounds like you might be running out of pump or with the high bottle pressure your going too lean.
