Smitty my Whipple set up runs on lower pressure than the Prochargers,


Mine goes up from 40psi to 52 under boost. The pressure stayed steady up to 9.65 lbs of boost at 6100rpm at around 860hp.I did change all of the stock fuel system on the Hustler , Even the fittings in the tank The red pump has been keeping up.

Its allways better to overkill on the fuel system.Aslong as your not dead heading it

Ok. Thanks. No I'm not running anywhere near 60psi under boost. You guys are talking big psi increases under boost. I thought my aeromotive bypass regulator only increased 1:1. So if I have 7-8 lbs of boost I thought it would only raise my fuel pressure 7-8 lbs. Is this correct? That's about all I'm getting so if it's supposed to be more then maybe I'm already at the limit. Anybody know what the Red Aeromotive bypass regulator is supposed to do under boost?

Most injectors are rated at 43psi, if you increase the pressure you can flow more fuel. The aeromotive bypass regulator is a 1:1, if you start at 35 +9 = 44. I start at 43, + 11 = 54. My injectors are big (96) so I do not need to run the super high pressures.
