Unfortunately the pump flowed more than the pressure regulator can handle and I should have been told to use an intermediate regulator.
Since I wasn't told it was necessary I obviously didnt use one, the pump over pressured the built in regulator and over fueled the system and apparently while trouble shooting the issue it filled the #3 cylinder with fuel and it hydro-locked destroying the #3 piston and bending 3 rods.
So making chicken salad out of chicken shit I decided to go with the lower compression pistons and get it ready for boost which is why i bought the FITEch system anyway. Supposed to be good up to 25psi out of the box.
Still dealing with FITech on the culpability but I dont have a warm fuzzy on that. It was simply a conversation with a tech guy who I have no idea his name afterwards. No record of the conversation etc...
