Quick question re FPR's, is there any difference b/w a FPR for a normally aspirated 944 and a 944t?

Also, is there any difference b/w a FPR for a 220bhp 944t and a 250bhp 944t?

Thanks in advance...

That makes more sense.

Sorry, it was late and I was tired. Yes, FPR = fuel pressure regulator.

Any ideas re the original query folks?

Not sure about standard V Turbo. What are you trying achieve?

For my Turbo I was going to look at getting a 3 bar one. These are sold by all sorts of companies for silly money but I believe the Bosch Part number is 0 280 160 249 and from Eurocarparts it is 430110070. Not sure if that helps at all!

May be different for the stock ones. The after market ones are adjustable so no difference. Ran a turbo setup on my N/a 944 & the car gained HP on the dyno running stock pressure. Car was a lot smoother. It was the Lindsey racing set up & I fitted it to rule out the fuel rail failure that had cost a few burned out 944's. Injectors are different for the turbo. Fuel pressure probably the same. But don't quote me on that! :)

You can look up the Bosch numbers yourself for the various years/models your asking about.
