How many ports does it have ?

They vary in design, mine has a two port FPR and it simply replaces the std. item, and the vacuum pipe is extended to suit.

Like dunx said it depends on the number of ports and set up (do you want to run a parallel set-up)? See set-up below for mine:

1. Fuel comes in from filter to T-piece
2. T-piece feeds rails (one line to each rail obviously)
3. Surplus fuel flows through rails to Regulator, note mines a three port with two in-ports (one each side) and one return (bottom).
4. Regulator regulates (to maintain given pressure).
5. Surplus fuel flows out of regulator to return line connection near fuel filter and back to tank.

The fuels flows 'parallel' down the rails (hope that makes sence). If you want to know how to connect up a regulator to standard rails then I have no idea . I'm sure theres a guide floating around somewhere on how to mod standard rails to run a parallel set up and fitting a regulator without the need for new lines.

Hope this helps .
