Did you rewire the fuel pump too? The stock wire is like 18ga iirc so maybe it's overloading the old wires, also you need a fpr with a 255lph pump.

You're running too much fuel pump for the stock fuel pressure regulator. You will need a FPR that lets you raise AND lower the fuel pressure in order to control it. You have too much fuel which is why your car is stuttering under boost at certain rpms. I'd change your plugs when you add the FPR, you likely have fouled them.

You shouldnt really need a tune if your still on stock injectors IMO. BTW whats a stage II 16g?

:rofl: Go easy on him guys ;)

Yeah, dont F around with anything other than Aeromotive. Wont need a tune unless you get new injectors.

Also, your sig pic is fuckin huge, scale that shit down a bit.

My car doesnt sputter yet with just the 255. Only reason I got the 255 is b/c I bought my whole fuel set up off another dsm'er so I said give me it all. I might switch to a 190 or go with FPR. Im still undecided. I did hear that the automatic stock fpr is a little different than a 5 sp. Not 100% pos. though. Any thoughts?
