Default FPR's and Fuel Rails...

Im going to pick up a fuel pressure gauge for my h23 because i dont think im getting the right fuel pressure. which would you recommend. B&M or AEM. Also, i read that for the AEM FPR you need the AEM fuel rail...is that true? ive been told both ways....so im kindve torn. thanks for the help

The ideal setup would be a an AEM FPR and rail, and a liquid filled gauge. The rail is not something that you neccessarily need, it's just nice to have because you can put the guage right on the rail and it has several extra ports for NOS and such.

There are other great brands, but I'm happy with my AEM stuff...

aem fpr blow ***! I had one for only 6 months before the inside diaphram blew out and screwed up my idle and performance.

This is a very common problem with them so beware and you have been warned

i heard that with the B&M FPR you can only go stock or increase the fuel pressure. is that true?

i guess i dont see why i need to make it less than stock though...

if you are staying all mootor then you only ned to get the b&m unless you are one of those looks cool kinda guys.

All you will need is to bump up the pressure a lil bit if any for all motor.
