Default i'm running the pc16 k04 file

with the redtops and a 3.0 bar fpr. it's a tad rich, but I didn't want to run an adj fpr, can I upgrade my oem n75 valve to the 'race' version or whatever to bring in a bit more boost with the extra fuel? which valve to get?

Default Don't think so, because the fuel pressure rises with manifold pressure

you'll have to get an adjustable fpr, i think that file runs best around 2.8bar from when I had that set-up

Default If you want to use the 3 bar fpr you will need to change to the RC 310cc injectors.

But it will be cheaper to just buy the adjustable fpr. Like tom said, increasing the boost will not help since the fuel pressure will also increase.

Default Don't skimp- buy an adj FPR.......dial it in at 26-28 psi at idle. will run great.

it's hardly more than a new N75, which will do nothing for you.

Default With the car warm and with the fpr vac line removed.

Well that is the correct way of setting the fpr.

Default

shouldn't the vac line be plugged to, or is it suppose to be measured while it sucking in air?

Default I never plug mine. Once you pull the vac line the fuel pressure gauge should

sit still so you can adjust the fpr.

Default i have an adj fpr, but no gauge, is there a way to adjust it without one?

if I don't have one, where can I get a gauge? tia.
