14.5 psi = 1 kg/cm2.



When setting the fuel pressure gauge, turn the car on and disconnect the vacuum source that goes to the fuel pressure regulator. Set it for 3 kg/cm2. Plug the vacuum source back on to the fpr. Drive around and it should go up 1 kg/cm2 of fuel pressure for every 1 kg/cm2 of boost.

A good basic rule is 40 psi + boost. ie 10lbs boost, 50 psi rail pressure.



Although 'fuel returned to the tank' and pulsewidth at max demand are important too
