I think it may have something to do with my new FPR, I don't have a clue of what fuel pressure I am doing, it might be too high or too low, I dunno.
You have a FPR and no idea how to use it! :rolleyes: There's your first problem right there. Take it off. You don't run the mods to need that. Especially since you have no clue how to use uit and you have no idea what your AF ratio is right now. You could very well be running very lean right now or very rich. Either way, any one of those will eat your engine eventually! Leave the more experience required modifications to those that know what they are for and how to use them properly. If you don't know how than it shouldn't be done!!!!! issed: [/b][/quote]
i agree that is his first problem.

he doesn't have the gauge hooked up so he should not of installed it.

Rev the mods you are running does not require a FPR. It isn't going to help. but if not set properly it will hurt.

And a A/F gauge will not help him tune the fpr. Only a wideband will help in tuning his car.

Daytona is on a distinguished road
I would suggest then calling the manufacturer and see if they can email/mail/verbally instruct you on how to hook it up on the 4.

you have to cut the fuel line and put the T in. the dierections are different but the purpose and what our trying to accomplish is the same. you just have to apply it to the 2.4 that has a different setup but still have a fuel line.

The point of my post was to mark the seriousness of your mistake. I've seen more than one grand prix blow it's engine and or burn to the ground due to an improperly installed FPR. Do I know how to install and tune one. Yes, I did it all the time in the GP community. FPR's are serious business and can be extremely dangerous if not properly done.

depends on how much FI you plan on using. 62mm is better for FI but not the best for N/A
