How do i best take advantage of an AFPR?
I'm planning on doing the AFPR project to my 305 TBI. How can i take best advantage of the upped fuel pressure?
I was thinking of doing MSD wires and coil, coupled with forced air induction.
I saw a dyno-chart on thew FAQ which showed the effects of "upped" fuel pressure on a stock 350 TPI. It showed increases of 20-50hp and 50-80 lbs. of toque. I hope to acheive increases like these on my TBI if i do it right.
Would a new ignition module (msd-6a) make a significant difference on higher fuel pressures? Or would the coil, wires, and air induction be enough?

AHAHAHHAHAHHHAHAHH...God no! TPiS (The Part is $hit) Also says remving the MAF screens gives you 10 HP..and changing your stat gives you 10 and the TB bypass gives you 10 and using P4 plugs gives you 5 and the MAT relocation gives you like 7..The only thing they are good for is The Mini Ram and the ZZ9. You will NEVER IN YOUR LIFE get 50 hp from raising your fuel pressure. You may get a tenth or 2 if you are lucky. Me, I went slower till I set it back to stock. The bottom line is those claims are outragous.

better airflow, etc would help. and as you've probably seen in other posts, going to a dyno or to the track and raising it or lowering it till your ET or dyno numbers drop is the correct way, then go back to the PSI before it started to drop (sorry if i confused you, i'm not good at explaining). Unless i'm pictureing TBI differently..heh..
