fuel pressure riser?

If you were to use a supercharger would you need a fuel pressure riser or can you use a safc? beacuse I was looking over aaron cake's conversion to a turbo and I didn't see him mention one in there, does the S-AFC take care of the need for this? as for the fuel pressure riser did the TII come with one?

The T2 did come with a fuel pressure regulator. My guess would be Aaron used a stock T2 one. The stock on works OK, but like anything if you want to do it right you should look at replacing it with a better unit. Remember to get a rising rate regulator.

The N/A FPR will reference at 1 psi of rail pressure for every psi of boost, just like the TII one. It is how they are designed. Please take note that this is NOT a rising rate FPR, which exists in that fuel pressure would increase at a higher rate than 1 psi for every psi of boost. An example would be: fuel pressure increase 1.7 psi for every 1 psi of boost.

You could run a rising rate fpr, an FMU (basically the same thing), or tune it with larger injectors and a S-AFC.

ok cool so if you get larger secondaries and or primaries and just tune it with a S-AFC you should be just fine?
