How much of a performance boost did you get when you lowered it from 39 to 36psi? I would think you would be better off raising it than lowering it.

I would say between 45-50 psi. I have a slightly more aggressive setup and i run with
62 psi (i had to raise fuel press up because of high compression 10:1 but it was at 50psi before 9:1) i guess you could get 1-3mph more at the end of the track. the only way to know is to do test and tune session. |
