Aeromotive FPR ???? Junk or not ?

I am getting ready to order all the equipment to change my fuel system over to a parrallel setup. I've heard from 3 of 3 people that Aeromotive FPR's are junk and cheaply made. Anybody want to put in there 2 cents on FPR's ?

They are the example for all others. They are great.

I've been running an Aeromotive FPR for over 2 years now on my DD turbo FC.

Well I'm not saying that I think they're junk, I have no room to talk cause i've never had one. The people that have this opinion are experienced drag racers that have cars that run well into the 9's and even high 8's. This is exactly what I wanted was to hear some input from a broader group of people. Thank you very much, and please keep the info coming.

They are all "cheaply" made.
Ever opened one up to what's inside?
It's just a hunk of aluminum, a gasoline resistant diaphram, a spring, and an adjustable fastener.
