As i can remeber it sits on one end of your fuel rail, should not be to hard.
Just make sure you have the right one.

If its any consutation to you, i heard there not very good on focus, people who have tried them say there car runs sluggish as it over fuels to much.

Sorry boys you must have something wrong coz i bought a fse one and fitted it my self n it amazing!!! u sure you haven't fitted the pipes wrong coz i know if you do that its like its not getting enough fuel. I have a 1.6 zetec 3dr with induction kit, stainless steel sports manifold, decat, stainless back box and my boost valve. if you are still going ahead with it let me know and i will give u pics.

Wouldn't spend money on one myself as they are a

WASTE





OF






TIME





AND






MONEY!!!!!!!!






Any changes you make at the 'power' waste valve are detected by the standard ECU are are weaned out/opposed at the standard fuel pressure regulator thusforth you get NO BENEFIT FROM THEM unless you go standalone ECU and base your mapping around the new pressure boost regulator valve waste of money thingy!

Do yourself a favour and DON'T BOTHER!!!

Fuel pressure regulators are a waste of money so there's nothing to uprate to over the standard affair.
