F.a.o. Rob
I'm still interested in the re-rated fuel pressure regulator, can you give me the chap's email again (if they are still available).
Registered my interest on the original BBS thread, but forgot all about it until recently! D'OH! (_8(I)

More on the FPRs here: www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/fuel_rail/index.htmThe chap's name is Mat Smith (and is a good chum of Roger Parker). IIRC his email is mailto:mathew@msre.co.ukAndy, he had a batch of 20-40 made up - no idea whether he has any left or not - or indeed whether he's any any further batches made...? Drop him a line to see (and be patient for a reply LOL ;D ) |

Yeeks, didn't realise the FPR site until now.  Will be useful for Erik .. and my own weekend works as well! Sourced two of the FPR's the other year from Mat and shipped one of to Erik. Reliable smooth transaction with Mat. Dunno whether the other stuff he sells is competitive. www.msre.co.uk/ |

LOL Dieter  But I hope that you find the information there useful. BTW an alternative source of Adjustable FPRs is from dead Ford's fitted with the CVH engine... Not sure whether they'll fit to a K-series fuel rail - or what would be involved, but it is another option worth considering. Not sure about Matt's other products - to be honest, the FPRs are the only dealings I have had with him - but he is good friends with Roger Parker, which is as good as recommendations get! ;D |

Sent my cheque last week - not arrived, but it's early days yet i suppose. It took Matt a couple of weeks to send mine once I'd sent him my cheque but he did apologise for the delay and it was worth it in the end |

Great stuff Andy I'm sure that you'll find it to be a simple swap, but do let me know if you need a hand |

May take you up on this Rob, as you know Scarlet has a VVC inlet plenum and manifold (so more tricky). Plus it'd be nice to get some shots for your site of the VVC method.

Crikey - I can't believe that I forgot you had that VVC plenum fitted...  by all accounts, this makes replacing the FPR a real pain in the bum! |

Blimey! It's TINY! About the size of a £2.00 coin - and it came in a (by comparison) HUGE box filled with poly chips! |
