    I can check this, what will this determine?

    Hope you figure it out man.

    Motor mounts are fine. So is downpipe clearance (sway bar flipped). Before all this the car was well tuned and getting 0 degrees of KR. Ever since this issue all of a sudden popped up, its been showing lean and lots of KR.

    I really don't think its false judging by the O2s, i'm 99% sure its fuel

    Hey Brian, can you tell me how to do this test? I do have a fuel pressure gauge that hooks up to the schrader.

    The car is or was well tuned before by Overkill. The car has remained the same mod wise. This issue sorta popped up. The TQ managment from what I can see is taken care. The tune has been on it for a couple years, along with the goodies.


    I'm damn tempted to swap FPR or pump next.

    The wierd part is when my FP went out on my White GTP (around 130,000 miles) it showed no signs of weakness or anything. I drove it to work fine. That evening when I went home to get it wouldn't start. Lucky for me the dealership was down the street with the pump I needed. Oddly enough, my 1993 GP SE fuel pump went out the same damn way!

    Thanks for the help guys I need to get this straightened out...
