So, battling fuel pressure problems right now. My AEM is adjusted for max fuel pressure and it won't go above 42ish at idle.

So as I believe Shane suspected, the car appears to be bleeding fuel back through the second pump. Doing some testing now, but might be getting a check valve for the second pump soon.

Need to bump fuel pressure so we can reduce load as I was hitting 330load and boost cut (319 load) on pump gas at like 24psi.

So we are making it so the load is hopefully 270ish around there by changing around a lot of stuff. (injector scaling, MAF/MAp tables etc)

Not going to lie, I doubt I am going to PG. Especially since work is really crazy. I am kinda bummed but frankly I don't want to go until the car is working fully. I will head out to RF or BIR at a test and tune day when its done if I don't make it.

Still going to try and make it but not looking good now.

I am going to make you a liar! Your coming to PG, that thing is going down the track if we have to push it!

Plus..Don't think of the PG as just a event, think of it as a 3-day Mitsustyle cruise, with lots of nightly festivities, and driving with a hangover. 2 things we are good at.

I'll help with the pushing!

Seriously, you need to just force yourself to have realistic goals, then focus on having fun, even if it's not at 10/10ths level.

Heck, I only managed to get about 60% of the things I wanted to do done on my heap before the PG, but that's not going to stop me from enjoying what a brought to the fullest!

Having slightly reduced fun > no fun.

LOL! It's so true.
