#105561, "Fpr Install"


          

What is all needed to install a fpr? Is there anything I should do while installing this?

what type?
do you mean like the vortech sfmu, or a 1:1 fpr, or are you talking about a regular fmu? do a search and be more specific in your questions it will help us help you. we also need to know what fuel system your car has if you don't know give us a year and we should be able to tell you

Its a regular fuel pressure regulator, it has a gauge, and lets you controlle the fuel amount. This is for my 98 Eclipse RS. Here is a picture of the regulator.

First things first unless if you're going turbo you do not need a different fpr it's not gonna do anything for you except look shiny under your hood, oh and you would spend more money on SS braided fuel lines and fittings than you would on that fpr just to run the return line to the tank.

Secondly if you are going turbo I wouldn't get that one just because it's $30. There's absolutely no details about it in the auction, I would assume it's a 1:1 fpr which you wouldn't need unless you were going with a megasquirt. If you are going turbo you're gonna want an fmu that's adjustable by changing disks inside it to give you different rise rates per pound of boost.

Example on stock injectors, you want a 12:1 disc which will raise your fp 12 psi for every 1psi of boost, and an even better product is the vortech sfmu which allows for much more adjustability and provides about the best tuning capabilities you can get out of a product of it's type.

If you have a real interest in modifying your car for power just start reading in the turbo section

and if you need to know for future reference, which would have been found in about 2 seconds of searching, you have the late model fuel system.

Honestly, the only thing that I could think of that might lead to give you a little more power by installing this is to take it to get tuned on a dyno and see if you can lean out the a/f mixture a bit by lowering the fp from stock, our cars do run a tad rich from the factory, but I'd say it's not worth the $200 in parts and $100 in time to tune plus how long it takes you to install for maybe a couple hp, it's nothing your gonna feel, that money can be spent much better elsewhere.
