got the new belt

I made sure that it was on there tight this time. The boost doesnt slip any more and stays pretty steady at 5 or alittle over lbs. however the FP is still not going to 100 lbs but going to about 96 lbs. then, especially in 1st & 2nd gear, it will go from 96 to about 92 lbs. It seems that the faster the engine revs, which is the fastest in 1st and 2nd, the easier the FP slips to a lower PSI. Then in third the FP will stay pegged at 96 lbs. Anyway, does anyone know why I had experienced 100 plus lbs plus when i first got this setup and now I'm not at all? could it be the weather? it is very hot where i am.... could the tuning of the FPR been altered at all?

I wouldn't worry about that fuel pressure. The pump doesn't allow 100+ PSI for any legnth of time anyway. You are still safe where you are at.
