Lost the Low side pump
I felt like power was down some. I noticed it right after I went to the 1/4 mile track, I blew it off thinking it as from only having 1/2 tank of gas. Then a couple of weeks ago I noticed that on WOT runs after the car crossed 5700rpms the power dropped off.
I got my HPT out and logged it and sure enough, my hunch was right. Power was dropping off, fuel pressure on the low side was tanking around 5500rpm and down to 25psi eventually. Went ahead and replaced the low side pump, took the car out and i can now say, "Captain, this is Scotty. I am giving you all she's got..." The power is back and running great now. Made some adjustments to the tune and hopefully wont see this happen again. Watch the low side on your force induction rides peeps, it is doesnt feel right log it and make sure before you push them too hard and cause any damage.

Glad you caught it before anything went boom inside your engine...! Are you running a voltage booster on your low-side pump? Just wondering.

Yes, I have the JMS box on it. It was setup per the instructions and checked several times. I turned it down to 16.25v for now and adjusted the voltage in the tune. So far the pressure it holding at the correct points now.
