    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

    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?
