What kind of luck have you guys that have these had with them, I was considering the afpr from dsmparts.com
http://www.dsmparts.com/customer/product.php?productid=403&cat=164&page=1
I am going to get a 255 soon and I seen these, but haven't heard too much about them.

I have it. I like it a lot. It takes a little bit of grinding to install but its well worth it. It can lower and raise fuel pressure unlike some other afpr's out there and it looks great.

This looks like the FTS afpr to me. If it is, it should be able to bypass the extra fuel fine. I asked the people over at FTS if it could hold a supra tt pump without being overrun and they said yes.

I was going to order one for my car, being that I have a 255HP. I called the local shop (AMS, www.automotosports.com) and they told me that its not needed, at least on a 1g.

I remember reading a post on this fpr on another dsm website when I was getting an fpr. Basically there were more negative comments then positive one. Some people had problems right from the start, others worked at first then craped out, while others said they were ok. They said they had problems keeping the setting to stay consistant, leaks, etc. I would recommend spending the extra $70 and get an aeromotive fpr with an install kit, which is proven to work well. Your fuel system is not something you want to skimp on IMO.

If it is actually bolted to the fuel rail, be careful. I've literally seen one that broke the end of the fuel rail off when the driver hit a large bump.

That must have been an extremely large bump....more like a mountain...

I can't speak for this regulator on a 1g but I have it on my 97 and it works great!
Some of the 2g's had problems with them because of their fuel return lines not being able to keep up. Once the return line was upgraded, there were no more problems. It had nothing to do with the AFPR.

I can't imagine any fuel rail breaking because of this. There is nothing for it or the AFPR to hit to cause that. It's also not heavy where it would put stress on the fuel rail.

I bought mine at
www.fullthrottlespeed.com
They supposedly make them on site.
I received mine in a few days after ordering.

I have one, sort of. The adjustment bolt on mine stripped out the regulator because the nut they included was the wrong size so instead of the nut moving the whole stud turned and stripped the aluminum. I'm at school so I won't be able to fix it until May. This type of regulator won't break off though, it's regulators like Aeromotive that are only attached by AN fittings that are at risk for breakage.

Sorry to get off topic, but at what point would the fuel return line be maxed out at? Supra tt pump? Rewired?

Here are a few threads on this fpr so I'm not totally off topic:

I think nate at sbr made a 600whp run with stock lines.

I was actually talking about the return line, not the fuel line. I've heard of somebody somewhere that overran their stock return line with a rewired supra tt pump. Thanks for the reply though.

When they talk about over running the return line, they are usually actually talking about over running the fpr and not the physical return. Once you get a proper fpr such as the aeromotive that can return enought fuel you should have no problems with a 255hp, supra tt pump etc.

Yes some stock AFPR's can be over run. When I mentioned it above, I was not talking about the AFPR. I was speaking of the return line.
There have been several instances where the return line was being over run(with any aftermarket AFPR).
This seems to be hit and miss with the 2g's. Now it may be the line is kinked somewhere from the factory. Maybe slightly clogged somewhere from the engine bay to the tank. What ever the case, it only seems to affect "some" 2g's.
When speaking of over running the return line with an aftermarket AFPR. It has nothing to do with this AFPR or any certain brand name! Upgrading the line is an easy fix and it's inexpensive. Once it's done the problem is gone.

This is kind of back from the dead, but have there been any new products out lately? What bolt on afpr has everyone been using now and seems to be the best?

Well there can be two cases in which over run happen, the one which I mentioned & the one that you mentioned. The one that I mentioned with the return of the fpr being overrun is when you use the "modifier" type fpr such as the B&M (which shouldn't be called an real fpr in the first place) as it retains the lower portion of the stock fpr & just makes it adjustable, which doesn't solve the issue of the too small return portion of the stock fpr causing an over run condition when adding a larger pump.

For the actual over run line condition your talking about I haven't heard of many cases of this. Most that I recall where not physical line size problems but were related to kinked lines or plugged tank vents etc. I run the stock 2g return line off my Aeromotive with a 255HP pump and have zero issues. Though if you are running an even larger pump then this, it will eventually become a restriction.
