I finished my install of my radix today and got the gauges hooked up and everything. I have a few questions though.

First off, i hooked up fuel pressure right to the fuel rail and im getting 60psi there. Is that ok?

Second, when i try and start the truck up its doesnt start up the first time. I turn the key off and it will start then. Any ideas?

Which nipple am i supposed to hook to for boost? There is a nipple that sticks straight up from the manifold in the back and thats where im at now. It seems to be reading high though. At a stoplight i get 4 inches of vacuum, under cruise it goes to about ten and when i stomp on it, it shows 10lbs of boost? Seems awful high.

What boost should i be expecting? I have the Lq9, radix, 3.3 pulley it came with, and dynatech headers and cats connected to a corsa sport exhaust?

 

Congrats on the completeing the install.

I believe 60lbs is good.

Did you remember the lil black 0 ring in the FPR that you take out of you're original equipment?

Im not sure where to hook it but that is way high.

I would think 5-6 lbs.

 

Can you be more specific on the o ring you mentioned?

 

Dub, do a search using fpr, or fuel pressure regulator, you should get some hits that will help you out

 

Im re-reading the instructions and it only says to do the FPR step if you have a 2003 truck. Mine is a 2006 so i skipped that step. Any thoughts?

 

Ok, i got one thing fixed. It looks like I didnt hook the PCV from the valve cover to the back of the blower. The blower had a cap on it still though. I changed that around now im getting like 15-20 vacuum and about 5lbs of boost at wot.

 

Mine came with the same pully and i saw 5-6# with that set up. my fuel pressure reads 68 at idle and drops to 64 at wot.

 

Cool, is that what the numbers represent in your sig? Do you have a crew or ex cab?

 

That sounds exactly right.
Have fun

 

The pulley I have now is 3.3.

You think a 3.0 is safe along with a dyno tune? What should i see from that 8-9 lbs?
