Been told and looking for information on the MALPASSI FUEL PRESSURE REGULATORS

basically is anyone using these on turbo cars and what are the results?

my engine builder and tuner have strayed me away and told me not to use it as it stuffs around with your A?F ratios too much (ie. 3 runs on dyno same tune and 3 diff A/F ratios?)

can anyone confirm this and give me info and results if you have used them

Thanks

Have useed them in the past to get more power out of standard injectors, the pressure has to be setupm as it isnt out of the box. There are three different models, 1:1, 1.7:1 and 2:1. no problems with varience on the dyno. i dont understand why do you need one?

i bought one cause i've just turboed my na and havent upgraded the injectors but a little extra pressure will make them flow a little better as i dont quite need to replace the injectors just yet, putting it on on friday when the car goes on the dyno. ill see how it goes.

i think he was refering the n/a injectors to my post earlier, and i didnt pick up stock injectors cause right now i dont need them for the car, im planning on upgrading the fuel rail 550ish injectors high flowed turbo cams bigger cooler and prob a head gasket in about 6 months and who knows what condish the second hand injectors are in at least i know mine are good and up to the task im asking of them right now

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
