External vs internal regulator
Quote from vettetek on February 8, 2023, 3:04 pmHey guys,
Finally got my go-efi 600 running. Runs really good. My fuel pressure doesn't seem to be as stable as I would like. Even after installing a Bosch regulator.
So, Im contemplating deadheading the throttle body and installing an external regulator.
Just curious for the people who have done this - does this work and preform better in this configuration instead of letting the FITECH regulate it?
Thanks!

You can do an external. Not sure why that would solve the issue......

I am aware, and already replaced the Bosch FPR. I know there are a few people here that ARE running a "dead headed" throttle body, and I'm curious if there is better fuel pressure management that way. Again, for the people that have done the conversion to this method.

Quote from MyLocalDJ on April 5, 2023, 9:57 amI am also very interested in this. I have gone through two Bosch regulators on a new FiTech with less than 500 miles on the car. I am a certified installer. Car runs great. Has a slight periodic / random hesitation under constant throttle and then returns to normal. Fuel pressure s/b 58 and is running about 90+ PSI. Second regulator lasted about 80 miles before allowing pressure to jump up. Thinking the hesitation is likely related to the fuel pressure issue.

Quote from 67barracuda on May 24, 2023, 10:12 amWhich regulator does the 30012 Go-EFI 1200hp Power Adder use? I thought it was 58psi, but not sure. I have a severe lean-to-pig-rich condition that will not tune out. I Have a brand-new unit, and I have never been able to go to WOT without a bad bog. When I launched the car off idle at the dragstrip, it would fall on its face, go 10;1 AFR, and start misfiring unless I lifted it.
Also, I cannot make a data log over 30 seconds long, or the handheld will freeze up every time until I unplug it. This unit seems to be faulty. I'm getting very discouraged and about to go back to a carburetor. I have spent $1600+ on this system and cannot even go to WOT. Someone, Please Help!
