personally you would be far better with the likes of a Fuelab

have stocked/supplied/used these for years and are very reliable and whilst not the cheapest the quality is excellent - do "kits" on the shelf

Hi Alyn, hope all is well with you mate!

Thanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind.

Cheers again.

Buy cheap buy twice is typical, alot of the stuff you see on ebay look like bargins, but then when they are fitted there crap, don't give any benefit or even worse than standard parts.

Things tend to be cheaper for a reason

I do 100% agree with you on buying cheap unknown brands.

But sytec isnt what I'd call a cheap brand, the supply us with walbro pumps, amongst other bits and bobs.

Advanced automotives.com a distributor of RCM products, sells the sytec fpr's alongside the RCM ones on eBay. I'm sure if they were cheap Chinese fpr's advanced automotive wouldn't be selling them.

That's why I asked, as with everything, there is always a product that is a happy medium between price and quality.

I was just wondering if the sytec fpr k is that happy medium. But it looks like nobody on here has tried them.

I've already bought a fuelab fpr anyway, brand new for the same price as the sytec off a member on here :-)

Cheers again guys.

wasnt aimed specificly at that item matey, more a general point.

however just because something has a certain name doesnt mean its any good either, alot of items tend to just be rebranded ones

100% agree with you there too!

For me, the safest bet is hearing the feed back from others. But in this case it seems like no one has tried the sytec fpr.

Oh well, too late now, I've already bought a fuelab one :-)

Hi Resh

Personally i wouldn't use Sytec FSE FPR,I know few guys run them,but they have run to issues in later stages.

As above Alyn said,I would choose Fuelab,they're best,we are run on Honda in past Sytec and this one failed within 3 months,yes they refunded us,but still I wouldn't touch them

We are run on wagon in past Sytec fuel filter for Swirl setup and he has been great,but if I would do that again I would use Torque or Fuelab filters

And at the end,do you really need to have FPR,stock one is good enough for most applications

Hope this helps and good luck

Thanks,Jura
