Hondahater, I plan to run 17 psi on pump with my water injection full time. on c16 I'd like to see what the car dynoes at 25ish psi, but I have to get my fuel pump issue sorted first. Supposedly the apexi bnr32/33 that I run has an internal diverter valve that won't allow pressures that high. Honestly, the car is fast enough for me right on the wg spring that I don't feel the need to mess with c16 right

I'd really rather not push the envelope with this, so I've got some further research to do. The car pulled very hard on a recent 19 psi 4th gear redline pull with no fuel px issues whatsoever......

(3) Speeding ticket about 10 minutes after helping get Carl's/mp5's FD running again...140 bucks down the drain, what happened to karma? Officer informs me 80 in a 55 will get me $280 and mandatory NC court appearance, 'does me a favor' by making it 70 in a 55. Doesn't he know the FD can't cruise at 55? It isn't possible
(4) Suspension seems to be bottoming out a bit, my 6 year old Tanabe's might have finally died. Autopsy report pending.
(5) This one hurts the worst.....after driving about 1800 miles, a rock kicked up off the highway took a chunk of paint off my roof about 20 minutes from the end of the trip!
(6) Edit: last thing, loud buzzing coming from the fuel tank. I think the baffles in the tank broke loose on me....this showed up at the end of the trip.

My system is AN-08 supply from the Bosch '044 pump, with an equal length split of AN-06 into the rails and then into the FPR, then AN-08 return line.
I about 5psi drop, measured at supply and tank return. I have seen 70 psi logged from the FPR.
