Default Do not use HOLLEY FPR!!!!!!!!!

I was tuning the car and this **** took a dump.. My car hydro locked and fuel coming from everywhere.. Fuel coming through my BOV, thatz a first.. The diaphram in the FPR blew and it was not able to control anything , thus fuel went in all the cylinders. Thank God nothing serious but what a scary moment. I put another one hoping that was defective but same **** happened, soo stay away from this crapp.

What's your setup? Ive heard the same thing about OEM FPR when running over 100psi fuel pressures- which you shouldn't be doing anyway.

Same thing happened to an AEM fpr: http://forums.clubsi.com/ubb/Forum12/HTML/003791.html

Since then fuel pressures have never exceed 80psi on my new setup.

Aeromotive is one of the best, if not THE best, fuel system suppliers in the game. You can't go wrong there.
