RPW - Throttle Body Upgrades & Fuel Pressure Regulato

Post by khunjeng »

Has anyone bought the FSE Fuel Pressure Regulator and/or Throttle Body Upgrades from RPW?

Looking for some feedback on their performance/suggestions.

I got both. basically FPR no difference in performance but I think it makes u run a little richer so if you want to get other mods you can without the worry of leaning out.

The 65mm T/B I have on does feel better however I put it on before my extractors and I have to tell u dollar for dollar the extractors are way better but I suppose working them together is the key.

Yep i would definately recommenned getting the TB/Manifold and the Extractors together... The FPR is needed because running the extractors without it, the car runs rich...

Also to get full advantage out of these parts you would need some sort of ecu piggyback... I should have the Greddy Ultimate installed sometime after the new year...

The plan is to get the RPW TB/Manifold FPR and the Extractors including a high-flow CAT and new tail pipe / muffler.

you can save money by getting your local performance shop to take off your TB had have it done...

should only cost you about 150.00 or if you have the right contacts you could get it machined yourself and save even more money... only thing to remember is that you need a new butterfly but they can be machined up really cheap as well.

the FPR you can buy anywhere as well, and if your mechanically minded enough fitting it is a piece of piss
