    Aftermarket fuel pressure regulator

    Anyone know of a good adjustable fuel pressure regulator for an eta m20. Something that bolts to the stock fuel rail, kinda plug and play. Pictures possibly? Also whats normal fuel pressure? Thanks fellas

    Stock ETA pressure is 2.5 Bar. 325i is 3.0 bar, so that would be the cheapest upgrade but on an ETA save your money.

        you can't just "upgrade" the FPR. if you change the FPR without a complete retune of the fuel maps all it's going to do is make your car run too rich.

        get another 2.5 bar one, stick it in there and forget about it.

          Silly BMW, all they had to do was up the fuel pressure, and bam! Corvette killer.


          Keep it quiet though, we don't want to have an eta shortage once word gets out.

                  As Nando said, if you vehicle is stock get a stock replacement as anything rated higher is going to make your car run worse.
