Default Fuel Pressure

Going to parrallel my fuel rails while I've got my IM off to repaint it. Seeing as I've got a brand new unused Fuel Lab FPR kicking round I thought I may as well fit it to aid in fuel atomisation. As well as look a bit bling in the bay .

Only Question is guys, what pressure should I set it to?

Cheers,

Matt.

What model it is? According to the manual, from what I remember, it should be like 2.7bars on classic and 3 bars on new age with vacuum line disconnected

Set it to 3 bar with the vac line off at idle, then it will drop to about 2.7bar when connected.

No effect on atomisation, just allows you to crank up the static pressure to avoid fitting larger injectors... as I have on mine. A Fuelab is 1/2 the cost of a set of 640's.
