Ya I installed it, I had the help of a guy that has worked on many performance cars before.
Ya the grounds cant get any better.
I scraped the paint away and made sure it is good, I am going to do a full troubleshoot tomorrow. Get the multi-meter and circuit tester and find out what isnt working.

It should climb up to 50 at WOT and by 6k rpms mine jumps to 60-70. Mine shows 40 at idle/cruise, but i'm seeing what the computer sees from the stock fuel pressure sensor. When I had an actual electric fuel pressure gauge, it would show 38psi at idle and if the engine was hot it would increase to 50psi. This concerned me, but whipple said it was normal. The computer will increase pressure to prevent vapor lock. This is what whipple told me.

ya mine sometimes is 38 at idle, sometimes 45 and sometimes 30.
At WOT usually it increases to about 35-45 until about 4000rpms it drops to 20, thats when I let off.

One of your pumps is not working. I would check all the wiring first. You might have to pull the pumps.

Ya I checked all the wiring to the modules and it all has proper voltage. I am going to get my tank down to 1/4 hopefully today and pull the pump out and see. maybe a wire on the pump itself came off during the install.

Ok so I pulled the pump today and checked voltage to both pumps and both are getting 12v.
