Default Can i use a different FPR rather than the AEM on if I have an AEM fuel rail?

simple as stated above. I just need to know if I can use some other FPR rather than an AEM one because i have heard that they have a weaker diaphram and have been know to break under higher psi.

Will a B & M bolt up?

yes you can. your going to have to buy some Xtra Fittings and what not.

Do a search on Aeromotive FPR's and you should get plenty of links on how to set one up. Its real easy. Arturbo had the perfect setup using a non-OEM fuel rail.

The AEM fuel rail uses -6an fittings I believe for the side ports, so your gonna need some Union fittings for those.

The B&M is acctualy just an add on to the stock unit so you will be fine using that one. Someone corect me if I am wrong but I am under the impression that an aftermarket FPR isn't needed with a boosted ride.

you're wrong

you'll need one 85% of the time. Even with something like Hondata. Hondata recommends fuel pressure be raised to 50 psi(without vaccum). Can't do that without some way to regulate it.

you could get away without using one. but it's nice to be able to have a way to adjust it.
