OMP front strut brace

Post  TPhillips on Thu Apr 08, 2010 8:02 pm

Hi all,

Got bored today, so decided to stick my strut brace on (been waiting for the engine swap as air box gets in the way). I cut about an inch off the upper air box section (patched it up with electrical tape until tomorrow when i can get to b&q to buy some plastic to patch the hole up with), removed the factory filter and fitted some generic air filter, then i had to cut the power steering reservoir mount down to fit the brace on.
Then i fitted a fuel pressure gauge, anyone know what the standard fuel pressure of a 1.3 8v should be?

Cheers, Tyrone.

carb would be about 4psi
but the inj should be about 34, it depends if the gauge is before or after the regulator
