Thats a 14:1 FMU, not an FPR... and its not adjustable...

I'm using a Cartech Adjustable FMU, and an Accel AFPR.

Or just get the Cartech Adjustable FMU, and you wont need one, seeing as how it can control base fuel Psi too. If installed right.

Unless you remove the stock FPR altogether when you install a cartech, it cannot go any lower than the stock FPR's settings, just higher...

I have a Cartech FMU and an FDP A-FPR.

You don't have to REMOVE IT. lol

I just drilled out a spare one that I had so it could no longer affect my Fuel psi anymore. Works like a champ.

Ken... that's actually a good idea, never thought of it. Basically remove the restriction in the system and open it up.... did you remove the filters too?

Once you take an FPR off you don't need pics to see what needs to be done to open it up.

what's the price difference between the Cartech FMU and Accel AFPR Part number ACC-74565??

I will make a Tutorial for you guys.

Give me a little time. I will get pics and all. Another bonus is there is no need for the Vac line anymore, so you can put it to use else where.

Why buy 2 products, when 1 can do both jobs.

The one I have? Yes it sure does, it attaches just like the stock one.. I had to make ZERO modifications to make it work. Just press it on as tight as you can, then screw it on like stock using the stock little screws.

yea but he wants to put a fuel pressure gauge directly on the afpr

I don't think it has that.

If you have an ecotec, just put an -an fitting ont he schrader valve.

if not, then well i dont know lol

Exactly, thats what Im doin when my 2.4 goes into the car.. I went to Jegs and bought a small pressure gauge that im going to tap into the rail. The gauge is like 1" and some change. Its like the size of a 50 cent piece.

so to be absolutely clear, accel 74565 fits 2.4l 2k+ fuel rail aswell. But on the accel webpage, its shows 2, one mounted in either direction. Is there any side i'm suppose to mention when i order?

If you have to cut your fuel lines for the fmu, why tap a gauge into the rail, put it before the fmu inline. I tapped my rail for a pressure gauge, worked good, then the gauge took a crap, i put another one in, and I couldnt ever get it to seal right. Poopy, so I just put it in the line,worked good.

For us 2.4 guys could you maybe use the 2.3 fuel rail? As they already had a schrader valve.

And I have an extra one...lol
