auto & 5spd FP
My base fuel pressure has been dead on at 41 psi since instaling the walbro and 50 psi at 0 vacuum
I put in an auto ECU to send my 5spd ECU to JWT last week. Right after putting in the auto ECU I noitced my base fuel pressure was now at 45 psi. But still goes to 50 psi at 0 vacuum.
WTF
I also get a weird loopy type idle off and on since putting in the auto ECU.
I have used an auto ECU in my car before when I was NA and did not have any loopy idle issues. I did not have a FP gauge then so I don't know if it effected my fuel pressure back then.
Any thoughts? Not really concerned at the moment. I will see what happens when my 5pd ECU gets back.

What about a bad FPR?

I had a really crappy idle the first time I started the car with DE-K injectors, a while later, everything is smooth as silk..

No, I have a 5spd stock. I sent my stock 5psd I30 ECU away to JWT and am using a 98 auto ECU for the meantime. I have used this some ECU before when I had JWT do my NA tune.
I am guessing you did not know that from 96-99 you could get a I30 in a stick.
