The best Fuel Pressure is one high enough to support your WOT fuel requirements.

Hey my305camaro what mods are you running. I am going to try 12psi and see how it goes.

Brian here's the mod list: Edelbrock TES headers, high flow cat w/3in Flowmaster catback, Full MSD ignition system, Bosch quad4 racing plugs, 160 stat W/custom chip, Ultimate TBI mods, open air 14X3 K&N, and as many suspention upgrades as my wallet has allowed (too many to list). I did the suspention work first and I'm just now starting on the engine.

My305camaro, I plan on starting with suspension as well. If it's not too much trouble could you list all your suspension mods on the board or email me at soulbounder@yahoo.com ? I just want to get ideas and such. Thanks.

Here it goes: subframe connector(well worth the money), adjustable panhard rod (lakewood), all poly bushings front & rear (energy sus.), 24mm rear sway bar[front stock size], traction-action lift bars (from Lakewood), tie rod sleeves (hotchkis), strut tower brace(edelbrock), Sport Springs (hotchkis), KYB Gas-a-Just shocks/struts, and an alignment config that my local performance shop customized for my driving style & mods (specs I don't know). My car will easily do 55-60 on any 25 mph off-ramp as long as it isn't raining. My wet weather performance is worse because of the over-steer created by the big sway bar out back. I run 245/50/R16 Firestone Firehawk SVX's. The car also hooks up better but that doesn't help me alot because the engine is still pretty stock. Hope this helps
