Fuel system questions

[2jzlux]

So the time has come for me to sort out my fuel system in my ute and i was just wondering where is the best place in Perth or Online to buy things like fuel line and fittings and what is the best fuel hose to use.

Another thing is what regulator i should run, would an aeromotive a1000 be
ok, i am unable to use the stock regulator as i have changed the rail to top feed injectors.
Is it ok to run a 1:1 regulator with a turbo motor or do i need rising rate.


Thanks

best to have a rising reg best with boosted motor, but i guess it depends on how much boost your running and how big your injectors are. the rising rate reg basically increases the pressure in the fuel rail for every psi put into the engine so the injectors have the same amount of positive pressure of fuel going into them.

I will be running between 25-30 psi and i have 800cc sards.
I asked because i was under the impression that i wanted to keep the fuel pressure constant and make the changes to the injection volume with the ecu.
Some of these regulators im looking at say they are boost referenced and the pressure rises 1:1 with every psi of boost, is this the one i want to order?

agreed

Would something like this be ideal?

if you are doing things properly and buying proper manangement and injectors (as it seems you are) then you want to steer clear of RR FPR's. RR FPR's have their place in the automotive industry but not on import engines imo. They are popular for people doing NA-T conversions that want to stick with their stock injectors and management for a while...

That being said even with a normal 1:1 FPR you should aim for as close to standard base pressure as possible and buy appropriate sized injectors and tune the fuel accordingly.
You only raise fuel pressure when you are running out of injector, or if your injectors are rated for a higher/lower pressure.

Look for brands like sard, aeromotive, turbosmart ect ect for your FPR (1:1) and for your hoses and fitting use quality EFI hose and not low pressure carb fuel hose.

quality fittings can be purchased online from here...

Not that it means much, but my 60lb injectors are rated as such at 43psi.

I run them at 90, coz well i can. lol.

has the potential to wear them out quicker tho
