    weak fuel pump?

    grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    okay
    new stock FPR (intense FPR does NOT fit the camaro)
    new fuel filter
    walbro = 8 months old (ZZP)

    MSD adj FPR with boost referance installed, set base PSI at 50-51

    if i give it gas to biulds boost like up to 8 psi it adds 8 psi fuel = cool

    but if i go WOT at 16-17 psi the FP drops to 44 PSI

      When you put in the FPR did you adjust (set) with vacuum line attached or disconnected?

                To set base fuel, you must reference it with atmospheric not engine vacuum, so vac line should be detached when setting...
