Default fuel pressure drop at 6k rpm and above

I went to get my car tuned today but for some reason my fuel pressure drops after 6K rpm. I thought it was a bad fuel pump so I changed it to a new walbro 255 but still having the same problem. I dont know what else to check or look for??


FYI I'm runing:

Fullrace gt35r kit
aem ems
aem FPR
RC 1000cc injectors
relocated battery in the trunk
9:1 comp built motor

sorry I forgot to ask my tuner but looking at my pressure guage my car it gets up 5.5 kg/cm2 (78 psi) then drops under 4.0 kg/cm2 (57 psi) as the rpm increases past 6k rpm. My car idles at 3.25 kg/cm2 (46 psi)

What are thos numbers in PSI?

Also alot of people have been having issues with voltage tapering off at high rpm. You might want to try running a single power wire straight to teh fuel pump with a relay.

Yeah that is what my firnd has too. He has a Walbro 255 HD in tank pump with 750cc injectors. His tapers off as well. Try hardwiring the fuel pump. We will be doing the same to his this week I think, Ill post the results.

why is fuel pressure so hi ? should be around 50-60ish max. 78 makes no sense. the 57 seems right though at wot. u dont raise pressure to tune your car. i think you shold ditch the aem fpr and go back to oem fpr.

I had pressure dropping at top end and it was a bad clamp on the hose in the pump in the tank.
