All engines with EFI should have the vac referenced to the regulator.. here is why.

You are trying to tune the fuel curve. If the pressure/vac below the injector changes.. and it does, if you don't compensate for that you will be tuning the fuel curve and the pressure differential too. By keeping the pressure differential constant the ecu just tunes around the actual fuel curve and not the curve and pressure differential. Pressure across the injector remains the same.

This is a basic setting on the EZ that "Bob" forgets. When you enter the fuel pressure in the hand held, it is asking that because it is using the engine vac to determine what the fuel pressure is and tuning based on that.

This is basic EFI101 but even some of the "experienced tuners" out there miss this one.
So you're telling a guy that has experience with EFI of different types and 2 cars that run very well with a particular setup that they don't work properly?
