No
What reasons?? Cheers.
Well, they mess with your fuel pressure, the fuel map is made with the pressure at its standard level, so changing the pressure will make it run lean or rich.
What about if I had it mapped properly??

Then you would just have a fixed rate pressure regulator.
And map it.

Whats the engine spec on that?
I guess a lot of headwork,tb's, cams etc etc?
headwork = NO
cams = QED Q42H (slightly higher than std lift)
tb's = yes
and the magic touch of jamsport!

Does that power reading not seem a touch high for a 20xe, with a set of cams?
And running at 6500rpm?

mine was reved to 7k. the key to it making so much power is because jamie at jamsport has played with the map so much its almost a perfectly straight line!

cheers dude
gotta get a new clutch tho as it was slippin on the rollers, hence him having to milk it up the revs.
for the record, my last dyno was 213/222, and i've changed my i/c so imho the rollers were spot on, only 4bhp up for me so i recon thats about right

As said in the other post, Thanks to jr for sorting it all out, and hello to all the peeps I met. All top people.
only made 2bhp and i have a 4branch and decat, maybe the airbox is restricting mine???
as for the fpr, leave it! for more performance, you will want a raised rev limit, with arp conrod bolts and metal cam rollers
