It's adjustable from 3.1 to 7.7psi and is a true Hobbs brand switch. I'm going to use one one these to activate my 2nd pump and set it to 7psi. At 3 or 4 psi, the 2nd pump would be turning on/off anytine I gave it more than a 1/4 throttle.

Combination of junk in the injector, inaccurate wideband, lazy knock sensors and probably too much timing
