It should be about the same as installing an aeromotive. the bottm port is the return line , there sould be a port for the line from the fuel rail and one for vacuum. Set it to 43psi with the vacuum line off.

ok so leave the vacume line alone do i have to cap it or anything...why caint we have the vacume line connected? just wondering

you NEED the vaccuum line connected. Leave it unconnected to set fuel pressure.

Set fuel pressure to 43 psi with the line disconnected then connect it after.

Base fuel pressure for the 2g is 43.5psi. With the car running, unplug the vacuum line that would go from the IM to the AFPR. Your fuel pressure should change when you do that. Loosen the lock nut and tighten clockwise on the adjustable stud to raise the fuel pressure. Once you have it at 43.5, tighten the lock nut and re attach the vac. line.

Before you do all of this, it would be a smart idea to put Teflon tape on the vac line barb if you installed it and on the adjustable screw. The adjustable screw has a good chance to leak boost.

no its not...just an ebay afpr

im surprised to see your results then, last i heard the ebay fprs are not 1:1 rising fpr, thus no real success from anybody here.

best chance for a cheap alternative is to get the aeromotive knockoff.
