I'm having fuel problems. Low pressure. I have a inline filter was plugged. Is there also I filter in the tank pickup for the new style nytro 270 kits?

And what should fuel pressure be at idle? Then how much does it go up per pound of boost?

It should have the stock in tank one mounted to the alu plate that replaces the fuel pump on the 270 kit. You can just undo the bolts and pull the plate, just be careful with the gasket, they can be a PITA to get back in as the gasket will swell.

Also check your fuel lines(return line also). I think fuel pressure is 45lbs. That's what it was on the Apex.

Fuel pressure should be about 44 without a vac line attached to the regulator, if you run the sled with a vac line attached it will pull fuel pressure down slightly, the amount will depend on how much vac your sled makes.
