I've run Walbro's for many years on stock FPR's without problems, but others have reported problems...and a recent intermittent det problem I had on my car was ultimately fixed with an SX FPR.

Assuming you have a knocklink, give it a go. Just add the FPR later if anything wierd starts to happen.

A Walbro will overpower a std regulator so it should be changed, you will find that fuel pressure and hence fueling can be variable unless you do.

Alyn can post an FSE FPR to you with guage attached. This must not run above 5bar so ideally you are not running more than 1.5 bar of boost. Above say 1.7 then start looking at the SX FPR. info@asperformance.com. The UK price is £95 so a little more to France. Bon chance.

thanks harvey !!

i don't want run over 1.5, so the FSE FPR is enough for me !

i've just ordered the walbro 255l pump and a 550 injectors set....the FRP is the logic suite
