Fuelab Fuel Pressure Regulator
I recently purchased a Fuelab brand fuel pressure regulator from Earls Indy in Indianapolis. I bought it to increase the pressure up to around 30 psi for the tbi setup on my new 355 that I just swapped into my car. I bought their 515 style regulator with the 25-90 psi spring, anodized black on black.
I've been using it for about 2 and a half weeks now and it has performed quite well. It installed relatively easily (the bracket they make for it hides the mounting screws making it a little tricky to mount) and has been leak free. I've been running it vacuum referenced to reduce the pressure at idle, and it has performed just as I expected. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality FPR at an affordable price ($130ish).
A little bit of information about the company:
They are a small business (around 8 employees) that makes fpr's and speed controllable fuel pumps with brushless dc motors. I had the opportunity to visit their building located in Litchfield, IL (turns out they are about 10 miles from where I live), and I was blown away by the flow their pumps could produce at relatively low current draw when compared to Aeromotive and other brands of pumps. Plus, they weight significantly less. Currently they are only being sold by a few different retailers, but will be carried by Summit starting next year. The owner is a great guy. When I stopped by their shop, he dropped what he was doing and gave me a tour of the place and even bench tested a pump to show me the performance. Their website is www.fuelab.com.
