Fuel Pressure Regulator, What Type?

Just wanted to know what FPRs people are using and reports on good, bad or indifferent.

I like the look of the Turbosmart FPR800 (800 signifies it's capable of supporting a 800 bhp fuel system). The down side is the A$240 (GBP145) price tag!

Thoughts tips and advice appreciated. :)

While, in my mind, the TS FPR800 is a fine FPR there may be some that are after something a little cheaper. The obviously first starting place being those cars already equipped with EFI. To that end does anyone know what pressure the fuel systems on the cars run at:

Clio 16v/Williams
RS Clio 172/182
Pug 205 GTI 1.6/1.9

I want to run my EFI fuel pressure at 3 BAR (43.5psi), which seams the most common pressure to run at.

I run a FSE motorsport reg, does the job nice and is easy to setup, they come preset from the factory at 3.5bar but can be dropped to 3bar with a turn of a spanner

3bar reg fitted stock in my ph1 172

Thanks guys, I think most of the post '90's Renault cars run at 3 BAR which will be a good starting point for the EFI. What I don't know is if these FPR are suitable for boost and if so whats the max boost they will compensate for?

Just after people's experiences with the following FPRs:

Turbosmart (any)
Malpassi
Tomei
SARD

Tomei seem like a reputable brand and reasonable discounts available on the bay?
