Aeromotive FPR
Sunday, February 04, 2007 6:37 PM
Hey guys, this one's gonna be a lil out there.. I recently got an Aeromotive adjustable FPR. Its red with what looks like a black cone on top with a bolt-looking thing coming out (crude description, I know). It doesnt look like any of the other ones I checked out, namely Accel's, but I figured for $60 shipped, I cant go wrong.. well I took it to a friend's house who is helping me with my turbo build to get his opinion on it, and he basically said its a POS (he's an open-minded Honda/DSM guy who I call Turbo God). But I just read a thread that said that Aeromotive makes good FPRs.. if anyone can get an idea of what I got thru my crappy description, I'd like to know if its a good one or did I get ripped?

well they sell the apr for an LT1 and that will bolt on to our fuel rail well if you have an ecotec, but they are good frp but another thing is run a universal on and just run so lines from the rail to the fpr

Aeromotive FPRs are good, easy to install, I put the Lt1 on in less than 2 minutes

ONE IMPORTANT THING

make sure PLEASE check for leaks, after you bleed pressure from the line and put on the new FPR make sure to turn the key foward (at least 3 times) but do not start the engine to repressurize the system, and check for leaks

As you can see from the first pic, there's a bolt comin out the top of this thing. My friend said that it looks like it was home-made. I'm assuming that the bolt is the adjustment..?

That is @!#$ jerry-rigged to hell. I wouldn't let that near my car. Hell I wouldn't let that near my opponents cars even.



I used to race cars, now I race myself.

Yea dude, i respect your friend for telling you that.

At first it hought he was an idiot because from what ive heard aero makes good regs.....

But damn

Put that thing down, and slowly walk away.... F*ck that run. Looks to me like someone sold you a live grenade and pulled out the pin as they handed it to you

But hey dont be hard on yourself... You did the right thing doing research before just throwing it on your car.

And your lucky you have a friend like that, alot of "friends" act like they know alot and will give BAD advice from ignorance.
