If i increase fuel pressure on a stock 5m will there be noticeable horse power gains, or will i just be running way to rich.... If their will be a gain, what type of aftermarket pressure regulator should i be using, and is their any way to rewire/modify the stock pump in order to get more pressure or should i be replacing that to. Any input would be great..

Thanks,
Brad

without many other supporting mods, i dont think that raising amount of fuel/fuel pressure will do much of anything besides make you run rich.

Search for the AFM mod and read about that.

If the car is stock, replacing the clogged fuel filter will raise the pressure more than any pump change will.

However if this is a new name for an old forum member, I'm sure you already know this.

no..intake and exhaust wouldnt really warrant much of fuel mods..besides a mild AFM mod...but still probably not necessary

What type of AFM mod are you refering to, and what kind of cost are we talkin?

i almost thought about posting up something insightful... but seeing as it'd be odd to have 2 brad's in the vancouver, wa area posting up.... i think not.

Assuming b-rad is straight-forward:
- You really need to get in touch with the Vancouver WA area folks. Maybe Portland. I've met Austin, Brad, and others there. And the folks at Rrev.

Next, if you are doing engine swaps, Junkie in Everett WA.

As for who the hell is Scorpmatt, he is known on these forums, you are not. Er, so piss off.
