Cheers

Steve

 

no idea what make my reg is



only pic i have

anyone shed any light

 

was there not a post ages ago about how you should not weld aeroquip fittings to standard rails?

 

looks similar to the wrc ones to me but i might be wrong .
nothing wrong with welding fittings to standard rail as long as its welded correctly .


here is mine

Same here Ronnie

 

Mark Shead, don`t recomend aeromotive, as he often se problem whit these

 

What's the problem with these as i never had any issue??

 

Not sure, just what he said in the tread i linked over here

 

Mark had said about poor manufacture on the FPR but after speaking with Harvey he said as long as you buy the genuine Aeromotive they are fine so this is what I have fitted to my car.



With -6 Fittings on rail

 

Standard rails with -6 ends I'd go for and as above with aeromotive Ron

Nothing wrong with welding -6 ends on standard rail, infact we brass them on

This is what the group a and wrc rails are!

 

cheers guys, now wheres best and cheapest to get everything?

 

+1 me too

 

Got one of your 8 injector rails on my focus Jimbo ;o)

 

As posted above ! ! !

 

Welded ends and aeromotive

 

Isnt there an Ebay seller a lot of people pn here use for fittings?

I thik Richie mentioned it in a thread a while ago.

 

Richie uses "Torques"

 

Ive got a welded -6 inlet on the rail and a std 4x4 regulator (part of the rail) works for me.
Old regulator had a -6 fitting in the base but the reg died, ive now got a std 1 with a jubilee clip but as its not under pressure thats fine.

 

Most of the problems I have seen is when running over 3bar fuel pressure and over 2 bar boost they stop increasing pressure,
I do not recomend them at all, these problems I have been seeing with them dates back over 5years and stilll see the same problem today,
There pumps are good there regs are not in my experiance.

Mark

 

I've just ordered all my bits from Torques, and its black! Yay!!

 

what are sard regulators like

 

Standard regulators in good condition are well upto the job - just not as easy to aeroquip, and don't look as bling!

 

Sard are pretty good mate I've used quite a few

 

Cheers fellas. Sorted now

Motorsport developments new fuel rail that uses clips and turbo smart regulator. Fittings have been ordered from torques-uk

 

they look good what sort of money will they be

 

that looks good. whats the price on one of those, cause ive just bought a reyland fuel rail but it dont have the clips.

 

Ronnie is testing the rail, they will be for sale hopefully very soon!

 

whats wrong with the std rail and regulator?

I dont see a point in changing imo

 

The standard reg is old now so can be faulty.. nothing wrong with a standard rail with dash ends on

 

I don't like the 2wd set up. Simple as

And seeing what the car is doing now I want something a bit safer.

 

Any ideas how much and if they include the -6 fittings ??

 

Looks nice that Ronnie

 

Are you doing an 8 inj one ?

 

Nothing, my car will be using a rs500 plenum and twin entry rs500 fuel reg they're very reliable if they're good to start.

 

ive both welded and brazed fittings onto standard fuel rails,, and i would 100% say DONT weld them,,, but brazed are fine! (they are type different processes and shouldnt be confused with each other)

the standard rails are made out of the shittest material known to man,, and can become porous when welded

 

The standard regs aren't geat, i went through two standard RS 500 ones in my car before i got fed up and changed to aeromotive.

 

That surprised me Paul, the reg I'm Inlet and regulator I'm using was on a track and road car used regularly for three years and never had an issue! I'll let you know how I get on!
