    It should fit. I'm using a modified Galant fuel regulator on my 2g DSM engine/fuel rail. Why do you want to do this?

    it doesn't fit. this is a problem when 7G owners go turbo, since we can't just throw on a 2G FPR, need an aftermarket one

    Kev is using a 2g Turbo FPR on his 7G but i find it pointless unless you go turbo to deviate from a stock regulator

    theres no point to downgrade to 2g FPR even when turbo. 2g FPR is 43psi and this is what the ECU wants to see. 7g FPR is 48-50 psi which gives you a bit more juice cuz its N/A. If you go turbo with stock ECU it still needs to see the 48-50, not 43 psi. Plus youll have that extra 5 psi of fuel pressure to keep things to the rich side, cuz you better be little rich than lean
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    then get an FPR specifically for your motor and ECU.

    i've ran into this same problem just now doing the DOHC swap. i need an FPR specifically for a GS, since the 2G FPR uses a different base pressure. i'll never find one used...

    im swapping to a 2g ecu so the ecu will look for the stock 2g regulator pressure

    Like I said, I'm running a 7g FPR in my 2g engine. I've been using for months with no problems at all. If it works one way, it works the other way too.



    O.P.: If your FPR is going bad you can get one from a junk yard for $15 or less.
