I need to run an fpr cause my ka-t is running waaayyy to rich. I would like to use the nismo fpr because it looks like it bolts right on to the stock fuel rail and its reliable. This may seem like a dumb question but how do you accuratly adjust a nismo fpr (or any other fpr that doesnt have a gauge on it). Do you have to have an in-cabin fuel pressure gauge or is there another way? Also if anyone knows the correct hose-on/hose-off pressure to set it for i would appreciate it. Searching got me mixed responses.Let me know. Thanks

I think what you are looking at is the adapter.... which replaces your stock FPR, then you use and adjsutable fpr to adjust the psi.... I run the megan racing FPR with the nismo B fpr adapter...

No, there's no in-cabin fuel pressure gauge, nor is it read via OBD II...my suggestion is that you get an adaptor and use a remote fuel pressure regulator with a built in gauge...it's a lot easier to install too because the nipple for the fuel hose isn't pointed/wedged against the firewall...

not to mention, for the money, an aeromotive or megan unit seems to be of a lot higher quality

it depends mainly on the size of your injectors, your tune, and how rich your motor is running.

Any man who doesn't think the word "nipple" is funny on at least the smallest level, well...just isn't really a man.
