Fuel filter to rail supply line questions. AFPR, fuel pressure gauge etc.

[kristmen]

I've got a 1G Turbo AWD with the factory OEM fuel supply line that goes from the filter to the rail. The lines old and becoming cracked etc and I would like to replace it.

I suppose I could just replace it with an OEM line but I would kinda like something upgraded like those stainless lines with the -AN fittings.

Problem is my current AFPR and fuel pressure gauge setup.

I have the Buschur Racing BR/SX Fuel Pressure regulator pictured here:

The AFPR itself has no provision to attach a fuel pressure gauge directly to the unit so the gauge is attached to the top of the fuel filter using a banjo bolt and a 90 degree angle.

So the question is as fallows. If I replace the factory line with an -AN kit, how could I go about attaching the fuel pressure gauge?

Is there a spot for the gauge?

This is the kit from Import Evolution



OP: Without having a gauge on the FPR now, how are you correctly setting your fuel pressure??

Turn the car on (not necessarily start it if the fuel pump comes on when the key is in the "on" position) See what the pressure on the gauge goes to as the pump is running. Adjust the AFPR as necessary. I like the gauge just off the filter better because you can check fuel pressure with the car off (but in the 'on" position.) You do not have to take the vacuum hose off the AFPR to see base pressure as you would normally do if the car was running.

I never said I did not have a fuel pressure gauge. I have an Autometer Cobalt full sweep in cockpit gauge.

I simply said I want to replace my old factory fuel filter to fuel filter line with a SS -an line and I wasn't sure HOW to hookup my fuel pressure gauge if changed to a -an setup and that my Buschur AFPR had no provision to connect it directly to the AFPR like say an Aeromotive does.

That picture pretty much is what I would like to do though.

Does anyone know what parts come in that kit? I have Fuelab fuel filter already sitting in my garage. I just need the fittings to go with it.

This was EXACTLY what i was looking for thank you "project gs"

Or you can get one of these and put it somewhere inline. Closer to the FPR the better.
