    This may be a bad idea but If it were me, I'd just clean everything really good, put some paper towel around the oil cap, and then let it run for a little to see if the paper towel seems to be picking up any oil from the cap. It may also show the...

    Wow, I thought you were talking about a slow fluctuation. But this isn't slow at all. In both logs, your Fuel Pressure is jumping up and down about 5 times per second, all the time, whether you are on the throttle or not. It's jumping by...

    I am going to order a new evo 8 oil cap and seal and see if it makes a difference I read that the oil can be a common problem but the only thing that makes me doubt it is that I havent seen oil residue around the oil cap. I know the pic I took...

    My pet peeve is when I find someone trading timing for boost.

    Some interesting behavior in the first few seconds of that first log. I wonder how well calibrated the various pressure sensors are. I'll look at more when I get back from PT.

    The hood lifts need to be balanced for the weight of your hood. You must be registered to see element. I use a stock hood prop with the lifts with a CF hood for the windy days.

    Masfab mirror deletes just arrived. I’ve tried 2 other designs and this is by far the best one to me. Excellent quality and a small weight reduction of 4.5lbs total. I know in 2024 shootout form my race weight was 2847lbs, I’ll be doing a weigh...

    Here are some logs guys.

    Oil cap seal. Mine is doing the same thing. FYI EVO-8 cap is a perfect replacement and much better quality, or you can "double up" on the seal.

    To me it makes zero sense, your literally destroying your tires. I never thought it was cool but maybe I'm to old??
  • steve replied to the thread 2G Fuel pressure fluctuation.

    If you base fuel pressure is 43.5 and your vacuum at idle is about 17inhg and your boost pressure at the time was 12.5 psi that would be right on.

    Could you not use another ball joint as a replacement for the closest fender bolt and nix the bracket altogether? The hood wouldn't open as far if it's already at max rod travel on your setup but.. is there something else preventing such a setup?

    Extreme lowered cars with “stance”, i.e. so much negative camber the tires are riding on the inside edge of the tire. How fu$@ing dumb is that!? Like in what way does it make sense? Maybe I’m just daft, if so please educate me.

    Now I understand your idea and you are right. The battery measured before installing it was 12.9V and with engine running voltage it's 13.9V. I'm using a Noco genius 5 and I'll check what's the voltage output and if I can get 13.8 while charging...

    I just checked my email and the fuel pressure regulator is Fuelab 51502 model. Until I'm sure the problem it's the regulator I'm not gonna order a new one but I would i probably go for AEM with large seat. I forgot to mention i have a fuelflex...

    That's where mine used to leak. Changed the gasket to a new soft one and still did but not as much. Retensioned the spring clip on the bottom of the cap and the combination fixed it.

    Sorry, I wasn't clear what I was asking. How well does the fuel pressure track changes in the manifold pressure presented to the port on the FPR?Because I'm trying to eliminate variables having the engine not running will erase the question of...
