is cheaper than most i have found (most around $200) and HKS usually makes some pretty high quality products<ul><li><a href="http://www.optauto.com/webstore/product_information.asp?number=HKS-1407-RA015&amp;variation=&amp;aitem=5&amp;mitem=8&amp;b ack=yes&amp;dept=1084">FPR</a></li></ul>

Default Re: Well you may be right...:-)

I just read the fine print in the picture and they have some other applications not shown. I'd still bet the ballpark they don't got it;-)

Fine I'll ask since i'm curious. Why do you need an adj. regulator? It's really only good if your going to go to a dyno and get a real air/fuel readout. Not to mention you should really have a gauge or at least set it with a gauge and then take it out. Props if you do it or are gonna do it the right way;-)

My car came with a 3 bar, I got a 5 bar a couple years ago, and I got a 4 bar fpr I could always borrow. You may just want to buy a stock one and swap those unless your in between which can happen I guess pretty easily.

My cars pretty all out now, I guess im being a slight hipocrit since I just installed a aeromotive fpr unit and new rail, pump + some other goodies. But I was way out of fuel.

Good luck, there's a couple other adj. regulators out there.

ECS Tuning
ATP Turbo
and I cant remember if Neuspeed does.

If you got any questions i'll try and answer them. Fuel pressure is a pretty good way to dial or tune a car effectively.

Default Audi/VW Adjustable FPR . . .

or you can buy a stock 4 Bar and make your own adjustable FPR . . . I have seen instructions posted somewhere around here.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;engine=V6%2012v&amp ;model=B5%20A4&amp;submodel=Quattro&amp;category=E ngine&amp;subcategory=Performance">click</a></li></ul>

Default In case anyone is interested, I have an ECS FPR I can get rid of... =)

I am moving up to an aeromotive FPR and new rail too. If anybody wants the ECS-tuning FPR, email me. It was working fine when i pulled it out.

Default well...

reason im going adjustable is because im going to be switching to J31 programming fairly soon after i get my K04 up and running and i have read several people having trouble running the 5 bar fpr and have to adjust it to the range of 3.5-3.9bar to get the J31 to run well.

its either this or ill stick with K05 programming and go with a 5 bar fpr for now
