FSE Rising Rate FPR from RPW *Updated - PICS*

**Los** · 09-07-2002, 08:00 PM

can anyone help me out here? I just wanna understand FPRs a little better.

Hey I know chip is gone for a couple of weeks, but are these Fprs available yet? How much would on on these cost, and is it something I would want to do to a I4(no headers or exhaust yet)?

I am installing my FPR that I received from Vision next Friday, these pics will help alot. Thanks Chip.

Hmmm, I ordered mine like last month and still haven't received it yet. Wonder if mine is in the mail too, lol.

Does that FPR fit the I4??

I think they have two versions. Just email Vision Imports or RPW for details.

They do make an I4 version, I believe RPW has one. Now I know that Obx has one that replaces the stock fpr and comes with everything you would need inorder to install the fpr

OK guys,
I just installed the FPR and man what a difference. I had to rig it and use a T connector to tap the nitrous as well.

I left the shop and went down a few side streets to get on the freeway so I could really let it rip. I made a left onto the off ramp and gunned it and wow, the pickup of the galant just took off. By the time I was merging onto the freeway I noticed that i was almost doing 90mph. When you give it the extra gas there are no more flat spots were it lags between 65-75 (like I had before). I need to crank it up to 44psi like Chip mentions. Right now I am a little below that.

If anyone is planning on getting this, I would highly recommend it.

dyno tune it, you may notice even more. Im not sure if chip noticed any different but I sure as hell did

**pinoyesv6** · 01-12-2003, 08:33 PM

yea dyno tune it. uhm i believe when chip got his tuned they kick his up somewher in the 70 psi range. but yea ur car will vary.

**Fishboy55** · 01-13-2003, 06:08 AM

Actually when I had mine dyno'd they cranked it up to 60 PSI. It gave me one extra HP and about 2 pounds of torque. The problem I had with that is that my car was really hard to start after that because of the extra fuel in the cylinders. So I cranked it down to 50 PSI. Now it starts better. But yea, anywhere around 45 to 50 will take out your flat spots.

**Mante** · 01-13-2003, 06:58 AM

yea mine is around 48ish psi. remarkably coming out of 3rd at 110 doenst pull as strong but that flat spot around 3k-4.5k rpm is gone...

**krazienluv10** · 04-27-2003, 02:57 AM

hey guys i just got mine today and had a question... i the 45-50 psi at idle or is the engine off??? thanks

If the engine is off, there isn't any fuel pressure. 8) But it's a good question. I set mine to 48-50 pounds at idle. On track days, I'd turn it up to 60psi, but be warned that may make your car harder to start.

WARNING! Be sure and disconnect the fuel pump relay under the hood, then continue to start the car until it will no longer starts before doing any fuel system work. This will release a lot of the pressure and clear the fuel out of the lines.

Anyone with an I4 have a pc of their setup. I have got mine "installed" I just wanna make sure it's right. pretty much I just have the return line running through the FPR. But the Gauge on it says lole high 48-50 psi. Thanks again.

50 psi...whoa if I can remember correctly 55ish flooded the cylinder so be weary of where its set.

how do I adjust it? It didn't come with directions CHIP

**krazienluv10** · 04-28-2003, 02:10 AM

okay just to make sure im gonna do this right the fuel passes the ruel rails runs past injectors, then goes to stock fpr and then runs through the adjustable fpr and then the tank... right??? sorry i bought a different one on ebay and the guy didnt email the instructions as he was suppose to...

ohhh yea where is the fuel pump relay??? is that just the fuse???

**Fishboy55** · 04-28-2003, 06:15 AM

Sorry CJ. I thought a True Tuner could figure it out. Remove the 1/2 inch cap nut on the top of the unit. loosen the 1/2 inch locking nut you find under it. Turn the screw to raise or lower the fuel pressure. Then tighten the nut.

Yes, you have exactly the right path. So it's the return hose you splice into.

Check your owners manual. On the V6, it's in the fuse box under the hood, and it's one of the front relays. There's a picture of an engine on the fusebox cover. And no, it's not a fuse, it's a relay.
