Yeah the FPR is set to the lowest it can be. The adj screw is backed out all the way, and back in 1/4 turn. So it is either bad, or??

Make sure you don't have a restriction downstream... Run the outlet of the FPR into a bucket and see if the pressure stays the same.Quote:

Keep us posted on the smoking issue. I just started mine up again a few weeks ago after getting my 19t rebuilt (again) and I had no smoke on initial startup. Congrats its a good and scary feeling at the same time hoping nothing goes wrong! :D
It looks like OEM feed lines too. That's what I used. Some of the SS braided lines like the 3SX ones for example are a smaller ID on the hose itself than OEM. The bends for the fittings further reduce it so I know that has been a contributing factor for some although not the case here.Quote:

It was kind of hard to tell the exact color of the smoke since my laptop cable split a couple wires giving my screen a bluish tint to it until my replacement comes in.Quote:

Definitely white smoke. I have not swapped plugs yet, so that may have contributed somewhat. No panic will be had until I get the new injectors, plugs, and the fuel pressure under control. Eliminate the what ifs before proceeding with the oh shits.
On a good note, much thanks to Greg, Brett, and all the rest that have had their hands in the flashed ecu/chrome awesomeness. :Clap::Bow: Getting that in, flashed, and running was about the easiest part of this build. With some time logging fuel trims when able, I believe I will have no issues getting her to a safe, drivable tune ready for the real boys at English Racing. (You will be getting you tuner cut Greg, even if I pay it myself!) :bigthumb:
What regulator? Stock return pretty much will limit you to a high 40 to 50psi base pressure.

Should be rule number one in the new owners guide :DQuote:

I believe it is the Aeromotive A1000-6. Using stock feed as return. I need to check that there is no restriction as Larry mentioned. I will just disconnect the return line from the hat, pull it down under the car to a container.Quote:
