Re: SD> loses power when give throttle

Remember it is 55psi static "over boost pressure".  You either need to 
disconnect the vacuum line going to the regulator, or it will read lower 
with vacuum at the manifold.  It would be closer to 40psi I think, either 
way, if it show 10psi, it is likely your problem...

What computer is it using? Do you still have the stock injectors and stock fuel 
pressure regulator?

What ECU/calibration are you using?  Base pressure should be at 55psi.

The fuel pressure is rising when it given throttle, so i think the
pump is fine.  Anyway my problem is that when you give it throttle it
bogs really bad to the point where it is not driveable. there is no
check engine light on. and it idles just fine.  it just got new plugs
and fuel filter, needed both, but still same problem.  All 4 plugs
looked the same, carbon fouled.  Anyone have any ideas on which
direction to point me.  Also what psi should I have the fuel pressure
reg at idle.  

Thanks
