Message: [QUOTE="windrunner408, post: 446223, member: 1868"] I think that when it comes down to making clean and efficient power, it takes things being set up properly so everything works together (in harmony essentially) and doesn't end up fight anything else. I think that my EGT drop could be due to a better atomization of the fuel for a cleaner burn. I guess there could be less fuel but perhaps the flow being delivered to the injector is more laminar than before so the fuel flows into the port on the injector easier. Of course this is all purely conjecture. I just look at it from the stand point that a smart engineer put a specification out for a minimum pressure of fuel be delivered to the injectors (for a specified amount of fuel flow for a given volume) and the injector builders know that by running too low of a fuel pressure ends up resulting in not enough fuel flow to the injectors and there by leads to premature failure of the injectors and therefore probably build in a large factor of safety. I agree with Dennis below in that it is really going to take some long term standardized testing on a lot of different trucks to fully know what the deal is. I know I have talked with the injector builder of my injectors and he is fine with me running the pressure where I have it. I also figure that I have more than what is at my regulator in the fuel rails due to it being further down the line so I am going to keep it where it is for now anyways. I agree completely Dennis. This is why I just post up what I noticed with my truck and if others want to try it then all the more power to them. I think the only way to really know is to do a lot of standardized testing with different trucks. I liked my strictly diesel RR kit. [/QUOTE]
