FPR, how did I install one and set it correctly

[morgan]

Okay so my car is going in to be getting g an ecu and mapped in 3 weeks and was told to get a FPR so they can make sure everything g is safe.

Was going to go with the tuning developments kit, anyone had any problems with these or recommend anything else?

When I get it just want to know how to install and set it up to stock pressure

Need all the help I can please

Thank you

Joe

Nice one mate thanks.

Do you know if the tuning developments Fuel pressure regulator is any good ?

Looking to make 200bhp

[5e colin]

you dont need 1 for a 200bhp uprate the pump instead

[Jamie_VF22]

As above you wont need one if you only want 200 bhp no point just get a walbro 255 fuel pump

Hummm was told by the tuner it would be needed.

[Ollieh17]

If the tuner wants one, fit one

[morgan]

Anyone used the one tuning development sell ?

[5e colin]

Hummm was told by the tuner it would be needed.

why ??? are you going the fcd/rrfpr route ??? if its getting mapped then its a waste of money because it wont be needed

[morgan]

Just going for a piggy back ecu.

[Gainzy]

Of course the tuner will want you to buy one it's good business, seen builds for many years running stock fpr 250 plus plus I run over 200 with no aftermarket fpr. It's all about the map

[morgan]

He said he will map it without one but said they die off pretty early, don't want to be spending money I don't have to

[Ollieh17]

I dont see anything wrong with having one. Lots of things are not really needed. They are 20 od years old now, plus fine tuning fuel pressure in future

[5e colin]

stock fpr is good for 1.2bar tdo4 ( more i cant comment )

[triple j]

No problem with the stock fpr its the stock fuel pump I would be worried about, as said above if the tuner wants one let him have it.

[hopalong_neil]

My stock fpr ran 1.4 bar on a td04 with no issues, stock pump too

jeeeez al these boys saying go for it because the incompetent tuner says so

fuck it go els where just tel them to learn to map better

[Ollieh17]

Whats the advantage of keeping a stock one over a adjustable? Bearing in mind one is 20years old? Havent mentioned anything about deviating away from stock fuel pressure...

[5e colin]

what do you think because its 20 years old it works less ??? the answer is no she works just the same as a new 1 no more no less FACT !!!!!

you ever hears of 1 failing ??? me no not of 1 on any car what so ever

To add, i had issues with rich running after fitting a walboro to my V. This cured after the work i did where nearly everything was changed including adding a fpr. Now i cant say it was specifically the fpr that cleared it. But, same issue with my GTti, aftermarket pump and an old standard fpr can't cope cause rich conditions. Fitted a sard and the problem has improved, still slight issue with the return pipe being a small diameter

[Ollieh17]

Fact incinuates you have evidence to prove?have evidence on a gauge of fuel pressure from new and 20 years down the line?

Its personal preference.

There are a lot worse / less important / pointless parts to be spending money on.

An adjustable FPR can be pretty key when setting up a wideband.

[jamesglanza]

I have had 2 cheap afpr fail but never a stock regulator. My advice would be to spend a little more money on a good reputable brand rather than Chinese non branded part.

Aem, fuel lab, aeromotive, turbosmart, genuine sard stuff is all good. Stay away from the sytec imo.

Thanks for your help everyone
