Which FPR for Turbo Setup
Plan on throwing in the Revhard Stage 2c Kit on either this week or next. I was gonna run the Stock FPR till i came up on some cash but guess what. Got paid now so im needing one. I been looking into either the AEM or B&M. i did the reasearch but came up with there both pretty good. I thought i could get some more info from u guys. I will only be running around 7 PSI for the time being. Ill ge an STR fuel rail within a month or so. I also read with the B&M, u can drill a small whole so it returns fuel back to the tank, did i read this correctly?
Thanks

The hose that connects to the bottom of the FPR is the stock fuel return line. The technique of drilling a relief hole is only meant for people who have a high-output fuel pump that can't get the idle pressure low enough on the B&M FPR. Since supposedly the B&M FPR starts at stock psi and can only add pressure. It can't go below stock and if you have a high-output pump and need to lower pressure, this is the only way. So it depends on your fueling needs and pump if you need to do this or not.
The AEM one supposedly has a wider range of adjustment. It can raise or lower from stock pressure, so you don't need to modify the FPR.
