    I am replacing a Hilborn -4 pump with an Enderle 990 flowing 14.54 gpm.

    I am not currently running a pump sizer.

    Using Spud calculator Its telling me I will need to run a .180 pill at 96 psi

    I calculate I need .150 pill in a pump sizer to get the pill size to around .100

    My question is what would this do to the fuel pressure?, I'm worried it will drop it too low.

    Is there any way to work out what the pressure will be with the pump saver installed?

    Thanks

    Ideal fuel pressure is around 125 psi at 8000 rpm in first gear. Where are you at now? Your new pump is going to raise you fuel pressure. Never seen a problem having the fuel pressure too high, only a problem if it gets too low

    Thanks for that Mike.
    Ive had a complete brain fade.
    After I posted the question I forgot I was replacing the .180 with a .100 so theoretically the orifice stays the same and so pressure should stay the same as well
