The stock reg will let the pressure go over 4 bar and cause more fuel to be sent through the squirters . . . and out the exhaust pipe after it cleans your boresedit - plus the benefits of being adjustable are handy too Edited 02/10/12 08:04 AM by sexual harrassment panda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other rail setup couldn't cope with the extra pressure of the A1000 that's why it needed to be changednew turbosmart reg. and gauge along for the ride too And finally the pump..Im going to organise some rubber mounts or something for this thing... just not sure how yet as I cant really get a good enough pic since my car is lowered... I'll have to chuck it up on the hoist at my old mans and sort it out but its solid mounted at the moment.What are other people doing to mount theres? Any pics? Ive heard of people normally using rubber or something but is there a particular type you can buy from somewhere that makes it an easy fix? Sorry about all the questions.I have to sort it out in the next couple of days though as the noise is dredful, to the point I can even feel the vibration through the steering wheel at idle..hahaha. This beast sounds nothing like the 044, its much much deeper and alot louder atm The car feels happier than it did before now though nothing really to be had up top but between 2500 and about 4ish it feels better which is good.Atleast the cars not struggling for fuel anymore so at least its running safer than before with the maxed out injectors I was running.The car made 415rwkw on e85 and 413 on eflex cant remember what the 98 tune is atm but it doesnt really matter anyway..ohh yeah also this Edited 13/10/12 10:46 AM by Kroozin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its even vibration through to the steering wheel. Edited 14/10/12 11:25 AM by Kroozin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
