Default Hooking up the juice soon

Ok, i've got a ZEX kit in which i plan running a 60 shot on with a stock fuel system with the exception of an AEM FPR.

The FPR and Fuel pressure gauge are on the way, what should my fuel pressure be set to? i'm kinda new to this so as much help as possible would be great!

You should let us know if it is a dry or wet zex kit.

You can't tell what to set your FPR at unless you have a wide band oxygen sensor.

You CAN guess, by increasing fuel pressure until your trap speeds drop at the track.

I personally ran my fuel pressure at 41 psi at WOT on my old b18b with a 75 WET zex shot when I had my black civic hatch.
Every car is different

sorry, it's a dry kit. so a fuel pressure gauge is useless to set fuel pressure?

+1 kinda. I wouldnt have called him a dipshit

Seriousely, you can bump the f.p up a few psi, make a couple runs up the street pull the plugs, see how they look. If everything looks good you can do two things. Take it to the track and bump the pressure till the trap speed drops, or the best and safest way, is to take it to Sammy over at Coastal, and have him put it on the wideband. He has one of the most accurate widebands ive ever seen.
