Hey guys, My mate bought an r32 the other day and was wanting to find a couple of things out. The car kind of stutters shifting and sometimes almost stalls a lights, it seems like it getting to much fuel. The car has a malpassi RR FPR on it and was wondering what the correct pressure for it would be. The cars running 14psi, front mount intercooler and a slightly upgraded exhaust. now the standard FPR on the fuel rail has the vacuum line disconnected i understand this is correct when running an aftermarket FPR so its always open??..

Thanks to all help. Dave

stock fuel pressure is:

when ignition switch is ON: approx 3.0 bar (45 psi)

During idle: approx 2.5 bar (35 psi)

Idling when press reg vacuum hose is removed: approx 3.0 bar (45psi)

and you should remove the std fpr when running and aftermarket item. but yeah running it with the vac line removed will keep it in the open position. but it will be creating a restriction.

Its got a Mines ECU fitted. The BOV is a TurboSmart Type-3. I thought the BOV might need adjusting?? The O-Ring on the BOV screw hat seems old cause the screw hat it stiff to turn.

With the vacuum line hooked up to the stock one, wont it just run normal standard fuel pressure therefore making the use of the aftermarket one useless?

Thanks, Dave.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
