Hmmmm fuel management that will come later gonna running without any at 5 psi see what this thing does.
Have a spare ZC in my shed heheheh

that new engine will be needed a lot sooner than you think if you try running 5psi with no extra fuel mods. think of it this way, your engine is getting forced about 40-45more hp over stock and is getting the same fuel pressure as stock. thats like running your car stock and using a stock regulator to cut the fuel a third of the stock pressure and takin it for a run.
