Default fuel pressure regulator question...

can somebody tell me if the comptech FPR is a rising rate FPR or if it's a 1:1?

i am having my fuel system redone, and would like to use a 1:1 (like the aeromotive)


i already have the comptech FPR, if it is a rising rate, i guess i'll have to go with the aeromotive.


is there a way of finding out by looking at it or unbolting it?

that big pile of crap you have pictured first is a FMU with a 10:1 or 12:1 rising fuel pressure rate......no good

the areomotive one is a 1:1 ratio and is what you want.

money isnt an object dude.... well it is. but not for my build. if i want something, i buy it for my car.


why should i have bought an AEM over say the aeromotive?


i had the comptech ("big pile of crap") and i am at the point of my build where i am doing my fuel system. i was wondering if the comptech would suit my needs..... it wont, so out it goes.

in your opinion, why is the AEM better than the aeromotive. (the aeromotive would be cheap/free with my summitracing credit)

in my 'opinion' the aeromotive is more reliable/accurate than the AEM.


i dont care for the FPR on the fuel rail anyway...... not to mention, i dont have the room on the rail due to the intercooler/manifold on top of the blower.


i thought you were going to give me a good reason to go with the AEM. BTW, my post above wasnt an argumentative response.
