  • 3x00 Adjustable FPR $80 plus shipping, $50 core included

    Since i finally got my hands on a stock fuel pressure regulator, I have adapted 1 of the billet caps to it to make it adjustable. It is secured with JB weld and I have made sure it does hold vacuum. Its not the most blinging piece out there but I think for $30 bucks plus shipping after you send me your stocker back, its well worth the money for those that need more fuel.

    PM me on here if you want this one, or post. I have 4 more caps so once I get a core back, ill have another one to sell for the same price. Or, you can send me a regulator to modify for $30. I do test to make sure it holds vacuum before I modify, and any core sent to me that doesn't will not be accepted.

    I have my stock core unit I never sent back to Franz when I bought the adjustable unit (he stopped selling the units shortly after I ordered). Interested in buying it?

      Possibly, though im not sure how well these will sell. Im just trying to get rid of the remaining units for kimmo. Im making 10 bucks on each one, but thats getting eaten up by my time and JB weld so i can't really say that buying any to stock up on at this time is a good idea for me.

      If I have interest in the AFPR though, ill want it. How much?

        How much baseline adjustability does that give, and does it still have the same ratio of rise as the stock regulator?

          i knew i was gonna get asked that:P I don't have a 3x00 to test this thing on. I am curious as well on the range. It uses the same spring and has the vacuum line so I hope it has the same rise as the stock regulator, though if you bump it up to say 55 psi it may not go up to 62 psi at WOT. I hope Marty can answer this one Otherwise ill email franz and see if he knows.

            I am trying to get an idea of the base adjustment range and rise rate because I am going to be using 55lb injectors with this regulator without am fmu. I may need to adjust the baseline a little but I think I will be ok. I just like having the insurance because having that kind of dumb issue in the middle of a tune is costly.

              What the heck are you doing that needs 55 pound injectors? Yikes! Are you wanting to lower the pressure or something?

                Ok this will take a minute. I am building a supercharged 3100 with the 3400 upper and lower intakes, fulley ported,polished and modded heads with 1.8 intake and 1.5 exhaust bowtie aluminum block, custom headers, electromotive enginemanagement, powertrain control solutions trans management, billet custom stroke crankshaft from crankshaft specialists, custom forged pistons and rods. The t460e has been modified and upgraded with everything we could find available for it. Upgraded final chain drive from 2.92 to 3.63 I think. I am looking for some custom axles and flexplate for it now. I am running a vortech supercharger and my final boost will be determined by how it hooks up and handles. With a midsized pulley the dynos sim is saying 488hp at 7200 rpm. this may change if I can get 1.8 or 1.9 ratio rockers for it because the regrind lift is only 272 with 215 duration. giving me 440 lift with the factory 1.6 rockers. I also have to figure out an intercooler solution after I get the motor in the car.

                  Hmm, and you are sure it needs 55 pound injectors? That should be good for over 550 hp, probably even 650. Is that computer SFI or will you be running it batch fire? Idle is gonna be pretty hard to deal with using those injectors.

                    I am going to be running phased sequential. That is with the midgrade pulley. I get 532 hp with the larger pulley at 7000 rpm, and 578 at 6500 rpm with the largest pulley. According to rc engineering they are good for 550 hp and higher if I run the pressure up. They said that with the electromotive unit it can be calibrated down for this motor to 20 hp at 500 rpm. they have to be low impedance injectors. Again I am not sure where I am going to be happy with this yet until I see how it drives. It may be too much power to plant. and these values are with a 100 % efficiency inter cooler at 1psi of drop. If I oversize the intercooler the numbers realy get insane. I was going conservative with the numbers by using a baseline 100 % intercooler.

                      got a reply from franz. He thinks it went down as far as 30 psi, and he took it to 60 psi but didn't want to push it any further and chance busting the diaphram. Im not sure yet on the rise though, hopefully brad can test that for me this weekend.

                        Great sounds like it will probably work for me. It bolts right back into the fatory 3100 rail right.

                          yeah, its a direct replacement. Can't get much easier than that.

                            cool. put me in for 1. Have you found any upgraded axles or flexplates for the 3100 in the beretta?

                              I will have to check mine out. I haven't pushed the limits, but it was down around 30 when I first installed it. It uses the stock spring, with more preload, so if the spring is a linear rate, it should have the same rising rate as the stocker.
