I am pretty sure that rail pressure is the high side 2300 psi. And the low side is from the tank to the pump on the head around 100 psi

Lpfp rated max pressure 2013+ is 75 psi.

There is only fuel rail pressure in Torque, but seems it reads high. I'm thinking fuel rail pressure absolute may be closer to reality.

Time to compare.

I guess we will have to get that one too from FORScan

When you fire up fuel rail pressure 2 in Torque, the gauge displays as fuel pump pressure and shows much lower readings than fuel rail pressure.

Torrie, I'm considering running meth. Your thoughts on this and how to best implement would be appreciated.

Go for it. I stock both Stage 1 and 2 Snow kits. It's quite good because you get fuel system extension, octane addition,  and charge cooling all in one. That way I can get more aggressive with the tune = more power!

Ok, where does that put us with E-85? Continue or discontinue once installed?

Dammit I wish I had known you had the Stage 2 kit, I only saw the Stage 1 on your site so I ordered it. Are the differences significant?

X2, I didn't see stage 2 for our application.

And I will need to find a competent installer.

We have one at the dealership, but that can get tricky with paperwork, lol...

Do these kits have a low level warning built in?

You can retain the use of the OEM washer reservoir for that feature.
