What car do you have? When i installed my AFPR i could not feel the difference. 47 psi, for a 305 it is too much but for a 350 should be OK.

Are you checking your pressure with the hose on or off?

The hose has to come off to get the accurate reading.

PS. TPIS is claiming that they gained 22HP of on a stock 350 just by increasing the pressure. I think that this should be the joke of the day.

For now I've been leaving mine set at 44 PSI. If you really want to tell the difference then I suggest taking it to a dyno. This is what I plan on doing once the weather gets a bit better up here.
