    Returnless fuel system and boost

    Hi guys, after roaming around the forum i cant seem to get an anwser. so if you could help i would really apreciate.

    Basicaly, i know that return less system have a fixed pressure fuel rail, so that ecu does change and adjust injector width instead, based on intake pressure.

    my question is, if i where to boost trought that kind of set up, with the factory 1 bar sensor and no flash option to have a 2bar sensor. What could i do to get proper fueling.

    as far as i can understand, lets say that maf rear a X amount of air at 2k rpm 15 psi of boost, then at 4 k rpm 0 psi of boost it would still read the same amount of air, BUT injector would need to be adjusted.

    So, boost referenced fuel pump ? or is there some kind of tweak around this to get a proper afr

    thanks again

    returnless fuel systems have their limitations no matter what you throw at it. I ended up going return style/aftermarket hat and its working out much better.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    dunno, my mustang doesn't use a map sensor, I guess it would depend on your application.
