If @Fejjj951 Was asking about the new FPR then I misread and apologize.

Gaspowered is correct. If you plan to direct mount the reg you'll need to make sure the rail has a -8 ORB port.

Radium PN is 20-1623-00

@Darwin

Maybe you already mentioned this but what was the issue with the FPR you were using? I have been using the LR one without issue but now that CW is doing my 3L turbo build, I am debating switching to something like the 1 you are using.

My old setup had the FPR+adapter supported only by a 90deg elbow. Originally it was an aluminum piece but I switched to steel. Ultimately I just wasn’t happy with the fit and potential for fatigue failure so I started searching for a different solution.

The rail was made by @chris white

I’ll be changing the return line fitting to a 90 so I can get rid of the elbow and the gauge will only be on to set pressure.

Thanks for the pic.
Looks like you have a Silver Rose as well. With a Chris White motor, I bet it hauls.
I asked about the fuel rail because I went through 3 stock rails, all leaked, so I gave up and put on a Lindsey rail. I'm really trying to maintain a stock appearance, but I'd rather have an LR than have the car burn to the ground.

@Fejjj951 , I believe this may be the regulator Darwin is using.
I apologize if this isn't correct.

Chris did a great job building the engine in my car. Its a 3.1L and I recently swapped to a Link ECU so the tune isn't fully done yet. Originally I had started with an electromotive set-up with manual boost controller but now I'm dipping my toes into the EBC world and trying to understand closed loop boost control.

I wish I could have my car remain stock looking. Now that I live in Cali it is impossible to switch the registration over. Good thing its still registered in TX...

given your certification and current employment I though the whole engine would be safety wired by now!!!!
I’m still trying to get Darwin to slap a 944 sticker on one of the rockets….

You want one on a Phalanx? I can arrange that as there are a dozen right in front of me.

@Tom Do not tempt me @chris white ! We literally launch weekly! I may be able to sneak one on board a second stage since it burns up lol

Also @chris white safe-T-cable FTW
