ECU should "adjust" as people say but that's the reason why the fuel pressure regulator is there to "limit" the pressure

May i ask what gauges you are running ? as in what they do I couldn't zoom in on your pictures to see

+1

Actually pulls it off really well Mitch, nice work!

But yeah definitely needs a black steering wheel now, or maybe look for an AU tickford steering wheel with the grey on the sides?

Keen to see it with the kit on but!
