yes i understand that the fuel pressure reg will determine what it runs at but when hooking up a new reg to a car and your unsure of the base pressure so you can atleast start it wat would it be, for a turbo b16?

according to FSM 1st Gen B16A standard fuel pressure is between 35-41psi. can't imagine other B16s would be any different.

I got one on my N/A d16y4! :)

It's been @ 40 psi for ages,I cant move it lol stock is 36 psi

Cars runs great and get good fuel economy,so no pbs though.

generally you try and keep the fuel pressure stock and get larger injectors to match your fuel needs.

Higher just puts strain on the fuel system and is just another factor to take into account with things that can go wrong.
