anybody raised fuel pressure yet?

has anyone modded the stock fuel pressure regulator for more pressure yet? how much should I squeeze it? my first attempt lead to a destroyed regulator. I put the regulator in turned the tank over and fuel just poured out with out the pump even being on

if you haven't done valve springs yet, I would definately consider it.

Keeping the duty cycle down on the injectors. With c16 and a 50 shot they were above 80% which isn't bad q16 requires more fuel so I'm doing it to prevent the duty cycle from getting any higher

what fuel pressure? or valvesprings

doesn't matter,

you will need both with a bigger shot. once your duty cycle gets around 80%, its time to increase fuel pressure, or go bigger injectors.

The valve springs are insurance, so you don't drop a valve, cause soft limiter won't be enough on NOS to prevent over revving , and floating valves at stock spring rates,
