Default Raptor Lift Pump Pressure Adjust

Hey guys i just up graded my stock in tank pump to a raptor 100 frame mounted pump. I will be getting an adrenaline w pulse very soon. The pump has an adjustable fuel pressure screw. My question is what pressure are these pumps set at from factory and what i should drive with. I appreciate any feed back.

when i put my raptor on it can set at 35PSI (way to High) get you a gauge First and then hook it up. It could create a expensive Problem if you dont know what pressure your running you dont want to be to low either!!! if its below 5PSI you will starve the pump and it will NOT LAST LONG. just wait till you get the ADR and spend the 100 extra dollars and buy the fuel pressure sending unit the ADR will have a wire to hook it up.

Best of luck
