Default Need to buy a Fuel Pressure Regulator, which brand do you suggest?

Hey hows it going? I am in need of a FPR and was wondering which brand do you suggest? AEM, which is expensive compared to the B&M unit which can be bought with the gauge for around $90 or a SARD unit. Ive done a search, not much help, just wondering if anyone uses any of these and their experience with it. Ive heard good and bad things about the AEM and B&M as well, thanks in advance

I like the AEM one, but the Aeromotive FPR is good also. I know alot of the FI guys use them. Check them out at Summitracing.com

I went with an SARD one. It looks pretty too. It's a universal piece, I believe and not a direct bolt on, like the AEM and B&M one which bolts onto the fuel rail. The B&M one requires you to cut apart the factory one and everyone says it's a p.o.s.

Well, I find that if you know how to install it, B&M, it's more than fine. Pritty straight forwards. So far so good for me....

the Skunk2 roadracing EG uses the B&M one, so I'm sure it's good enough, even though I heard that AEM is way better.....

I choose AEM since the B&M requires cutting the stock unit, and since the AEM has a larger range of adjustment...
