I was wanting to buy an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator. I was hoping to get one at a decent price. Thanks!

then why havn't you bought it?
BudmannG
Because I thought I could get a used one for a better price. I am sorry if I hurt somebodies feelings. But I'm not looking to spend that much. And once again I am sorry, I'm not here to make enemies.

I like my Aeromotive, and can vouch that I bought it new for something around 150-160 from Winner's Circle. The only problem with that AFPR is that it isn't a direct bolt on and cost about another 50 or so to get the proper lines and fittings to make the sucker work.

not trying to be a dick dude, I'm just getting used to people saying that on the car lot all the time .
"Well I could buy this same car in Arizona for $300 cheaper!"
"Great, then why havn't you bought it?"
"Well I don't live in Arizona..."

Ok,ok,ok,ok.........everyone STOP. I don't think anyone was ever trying to piss anyone else off. We're all friends, so let's just find this man an AFPR. BUDwhatever, check out DSMTrader.com if it's running again, also DSMTuners.com or EBay may have one used if no one on here can hook you up.

I think trader is still down, they are all over e-bay but most are pricey.

Hey Guys, I got the AFPR in yesterday. And it is beautiful blue with a yellow silicone vacuume line. biggrin.gif Here is a pic of it in my kitchen.

Now I have a question. Where can I buy or get the part that goes in where the stock FPR went. I would like to get all this done before the 22nd. Here is a pic of the stock FPR and fuel rail. I know most of you know what this is, I'm posting these for the ones that don't.

Here is a -6 AN fitting that bolts to the return side of the fuel rail.

You might need a reducer coupler to get it to go from -6AN to whatever size that regulator inlet is. They have a pretty good selection of those at jegs.com or at Winner's Circle locally.

Here's another option for tapping the fuel rail:

Can someone let me know where winners circle is. I would like to go check this place out. Maybe I can find a good AFPR.

And for my quote of the day= "you get what you pay for"
