What fuel pressure you guys running?

Those from everything I've read want 44 psi as a base. That is what I run mine at. The stock injectors want/like 36 psi but most aftermarket need 44 psi to atomize the fuel properly. Edited by speedyquest

Correct. I'm running the 65 lb Delphis. Looked em up and they call for a base of 43.5psi at duty cycle < 85%.

 

Now my question is...to still use the rising rate on the MSD 2222 or find a bolt and lock it in at 43psi as SDS recommends (not using rising rate)?? :huh:

You need the rising rate regulator on boosted cars. Lets say the injector needs 40 psi to spray correctly so you set your regulator to 40 psi. That's 40 at atmospheric pressure. Now you boost to 15 psi and the manifold pressure cancels out 15 psi of fuel pressure. Now the injectors are firing poorly at 25 psi. A rising rate regulator ups the fuel pressure to compensate for boost pressure. So at 15 psi of boost the fuel pressure will be 55 psi.
