Tired of it trying die when I lift the throttle - especially after a blip when not really moving ... who knows the vacuum system and can tell me where to check?

Thanks...

I just bought one of Full Throttle Speed's AFPRs.
It (along with most other AFPRs) has a gauge port right on it. Now, I know Full Throttle doesn't make an EVO AFPR but, had I not gone with the FTS unit I would have invested in an Aeromotive AFPR. They seem to be the best when it comes to fuel supply parts. Whatever you do, DON'T buy B&M's AFPR. You cannot lower the pressure with it (which is what you need to do) you can only go higher.

I know for a fact that the Aeromotive AFPR has a gauge port on it that you can plug an Autometer mini fuel pressure gauge into (DSM carries it) and be able to watch your fuel press. while you adjust it. The Aeromotive unit is a bit pricey especially when you add in the cost of the stainless lines you need but it is definitely of the utmost quality. www.slowboyracing.com carries the Aeromotive AFPR along with www.diamondstarmotorsports.com, which are two vendors that I would highly reccomend. I've dealt with both in the past and they are good businesses. Talk to Jon at Slowboy or Ryan at DSM.
