Your reasoning for the fuel rail pressure fluctuating makes sense, but heres my other question: Why is it that the fuel pump duty (measured in a percentage on my ecutek dongle) would randomly jump from 55% to 78% just while cruising down the highway, with very little throttle change.

Ill have to take a look at the MAS sensor, maybe there is a small leak somewhere around it causing the car to demand more fuel, or maybe even a leak on the couplers that are close to it. Ill take a look, thanks for the input.

yeah the fuel pump duty cycle is just calculated from load rpm and i think injector pulse width, so if the port to direct ratio changes so can fuel pump duty cycle. Load can change a lot with very little throttle movement its not true engine load its calculated load by ecu based on air flow and rpm
