Air fuel ratio question
question one
i just put a sf kit on my car im only running 4.5psi. my question is how do i know if the fmu is working properly. sometimes when i boost the air fuel ratio gauge shows full rich but sometimes it shows full lean. can some one please help i dont want to blow my motor.
question two
im working on a return system but all i really know is how to mod the fuel rail and how to change the fuel pump and run the return line. i read the fuel system faq. am i correct when i say all i need is modded fuel rail, pump, return line, and a boost referencing fpr.

The SF fuel system is horrible. It is hardly considered a fuel system. Just another band aid, fuel enrichment that increases FP in the lines for no reason. So many people had problems with that set-up, and I don't know why people keep using it.

a nice add on would be a guage that screws into the FPR to show what pressure your running at. But yes what you have listed is basically what you'll need Thread Starter
