Time to hit the dyno....It sounds like your fuel pressure is a little low, are you talking about static fuel pressure?????

thanks for the reply AJ, but what i really need are the fuel settings input when the controller switch over to the v-tec mode. if u can find that out for me you are the man.

Well, the Vtec crossover should have a setting of 5800 and a backwards setting of 5600. I dont think that the fields has a backwards setting, so I wouldn't worry about it.

As far as fuel settings go, you really need to tune it on the dyno for your mods....should cost you any more than about 150 bucks at most to do. Probably the most HP you'll pick up for that much money. Just keep in mind, that as you do more stuff, you will need to retune, or atleast for any thing major....

The Field has a default (unchangeable) 500rpm backwards setting...that means whatever you set vtec at, it will stay engaged until the rpm drops 500 below that mark.

As for fuel, there isn't anyway to safely determine what fuel settings you need to use. If you have boltons, you'll need to be taking fuel away & making a car more lean without a a/f dyno is asking for trouble! I'm not about to tell you to remove 1-12% of fuel at any particular rpm like I do & not be concerned you go too lean.
