i.e. If 3.5 was tested and shown to provide best fueling, what affect would the fuel pressure have on the map if say adjusted to 3.0bar or 4.0bar???
Im assuming that the higher pressure would provide a greater flow rate and the lower a less flow rate, so does that mean it could potentially lean or rich the entire map???
Hope thats not off topic
Hi,
Yes, once the map is completed, extra pressure will richen the entire map and less pressure will lean the entire map.
However, when going for extrra pressure you will sometimes lean it off at high boost due to exceeding the pumps flow/pressure capabilities for that given horsepower requirement. Be carefull with excess pressures.
