Was going to post avatar at 97 mph but to blurry - Going to have to have someone else to hold the camera while I run it up - Started to take one at 125 mph the other night but Damn - No camera

taken from tt.net "The fuel pressure regulator (1.) keeps the pressure in the fuel system (including the fuel tank) at 43.4psi., so the cylinders can get enough fuel when throttle is applied. It takes some of the pressure built up in the manifold to increase the fuel pressure."

so what i get from that is if there isnt enough pressure in the fuel system, then the regulator will take pressure from the manifold to introduce more pressure into the system.

hmm...i can't figure out how that would work. the first part is correct, it lets the system build pressure then holds that pressure at a certain point.

if you have an regulator tied into a vacuum system(in N/A form), where is it getting its pressure from?

ehhh...it doesnt matter. explaining why a car feels faster is a lost cause. i think it feels faster because of weight transfer. the more the car lifts in the front, the faster it feels...well having more gas in the tank will only help the front end lift more under heavier accelleration.

Yea Broke I looked that up the other night too, your right 55/45. Still Nose heavy.
