Default installed new parts, wondering what fuel pressure should be

I just installed, a new intake, 68mm throttle body, propfessional products IM, 4-1 header, cat, 2.5" apexi N1, and a new fpr and gauge, should i be messing with the fuel pressure settings or should i leave it stock? and if i should need to change what would be a good setting. Thanks

Leave the fuel pressure at stock settings until the car is tuned using a wideband oxygen sensor.

Set it at 48 psi static until you get it tuned.
Static = vacuum line disconnected from the top of the regulator & plugged.

A little more fuel won't hurt anything

Correct, you will need an obd2 to obd1 harness and chipped obd1 vtec ecu. Depending on what system your car is tuned on, you may need to pay a licensing fee for eCtune or Neptune. If you end up using neptune rtp, hondata s100/s200/s300 you will need to buy the system hardware & have it installed and tuned.

The best bang for the buck if your not going to be tuning the car your self is eCtune or Neptune. I wouldn't recommend crome over any of these solutions as crome has fell behind by not repairing major bugs in the software.
