I would use aeromotive. I have heard about the AEM ones ripping the diaphragm. No personal experience with it though.

I agree the sx, paxton, aeromotive fpr's are very good parts. I do not like the AEM or the B&M "retro-fit" Comander. Although I have heard that AEM may have changed diaphram design/material to solve the tearing diaphram issue (but if it is true, who knows??).

I would like to try out the new Aeromotive rail mounted fpr. I think "Mista Bone" was installing one a few months back. It would be a great alternative for those who wanted the aeromotive quality but still wanted a fpr that mounts on a oem/aftermarket fuel rail.

Yes, they changed it. I haven't heard of any problems for a while. St00pid is using the AEM on some of the cars he has built (From viewing the pictures.)

I tore up a diaphragm on the aem last summer Thats cool if they have fixed the problem though. How much do the aeromotive, paxton units go for?

AEM usually is really good about that stuff, i have had my fpr for 3 years now and no probs yet. i even had the pressure at like 90 psi for a while by accident and no prob swith the diaphram

how do you use that without mounting it to the fuel rail? what happens to the hole
on the fuel rail that the fpr goes on?

Most aftermarket fuel rails like the aem are tapped for an -an line type feed and optional -an return and will come with a plug to plug up the stock fuel rail hole if its not in use.

mine didn't. i have the plug to plug up one of the holes on the fuel rail, but not a plug to plug up the hole where the stock fpr goes.

since i have an aem fuel rail, should i be alright using an aem fpr on my boosted motor?
