Fuel system in a nutshell: 750cc (rated at 43.5psi) injectors, return line, BEGi adjustable FPR (can go from 1:1 to more than 1:1 rising rate), stock Walbro 190lph pump in the tank, external Walbro 255lph pump running in-series with that pump. Tons of fuel available.
Blocking off the vacuum/boost source to the FPR, leaving the FPR open to atmosphere to use it as a static regulator, it seems I was running out of fuel in the upper RPMs, the higher the boost, the lower in the RPM range it would go lean. Pressure was set at 60psi, idle and part throttle were perfect, just can't boost at all or it goes too lean up top. Seems like I should have more than enough fuel flow and injector at that pressure rate for this not to be a problem, but it's still a problem.
Hooking the FPR up the way it should be, vacuum/boost source from intake manifold hooked to the vacuum/boost reference port on the FPR. 1 way check valve hooked to the adjustable valve on the FPR to seal vacuum leak, but allow boost to bleed through the valve based on adjustment setting (instructions say to do this, and it came with the check valve). Idle and part throttle are complete crap, tried adjusting the tune to compensate, got it a little better, but nowhere near what it was before. WOT is now way too rich, but didn't get to the point of trying to pull fuel at WOT because I hated how bad the idle and part throttle were.
Now if I put the check valve between the IM and FPR so that the FPR does not see vacuum, but will see boost and increase pressure under boost... I can set the base fuel pressure to 60psi, idle and part throttle are absolutely perfect, car is a pleasure to drive around town, but WOT is too rich (again, didn't get to the point where I start pulling fuel out in the tune to compensate yet).
Is there any reason NOT to hook the FPR up to where it will never see vacuum and only see boost? It seems like it would be a lot easier to pull fuel from WOT in the tune, than to try and fix idle/part throttle AND pull WOT fuel in the tune with the FPR hooked up the "correct" way.
