you need to know what bar fpr youre looking for

if youre talking about upgrading your software, say going from revo stage 1 to stage 2 then need a 4bar fpr

i can get your one through my work or try ecs tuning (http://www.ecstuning.com)

yeah technically with the more aggressive programs like revo stg 2 or GIAC X you are going to want to bump up your fueling. I'm running X+ and definitely thinking of going the same route, as my stock fueling setup is about maxed out right now.

Brian, sorry the Fuel Pressure regulator slipped my mind. I had forgotten about it, admist the forums disappearing for a few days.

unless you have an aggressive program chip, don't upgrade the oem 3bar.
apr 93, giacX, revo all work fine with the stocker.

But, if you go bigger turbo and more aggressive programing, the ecu will ask for more fuel, so 4bar fpr is the way to go.
Best place to get one... good ol' Vortex...

...revo all work fine with the stocker.
just to clarify there are 2 different versions of revo k03 software

stage 1 is a 3bar progrom, stage 2 is a 4 bar program and requires a 4bar fpr

and bigger turbos all require a different injector/fuel pressure...fwiw, my 440's are @ 3 bar and i have a t3/t4

I hope you didn't spend more than $60 for it. Where'd you get it from?

Atleast you got the upgrade for free though...there are revo guys who charge fifty just to get the 4bar program. Just so you know.

I think we are charging like $65 for these if you pick them up from the shop or arrange to meet me.
