Fuel Pressure....

So as us see the mods I have.... I've been monitoring my fuel pressure with SCT scanner... At cruising speed it stays a constant 50-52psi.... At WOT I've seen it reach as high as 62psi.... Are these numbers ok.... Getting ready to install a 18% this week.... Is my tuner able to up the pressure if need be.... Any thoughts...

Seems about right to me.

Anything over a 10% pulley and you should have a professional tuner tune your car. It's not worth dropping a cylinder due to low fuel pressure and your engine go boom. You may even be at the edge of needing larger injectors....

No. Need boost a pump. The goal is to maintain 65 at wot.
If you're holding 62 and tuned that way, it's fine for now
