Aeromotive 13301 FPR for VQ35

Hi guys, I am looking for some help determining if this is the right FPR for me.

I have a "full" swap 3.5 that requires a constant 51 psi of fuel pressure. I currently have a eBay SARD that is leaking internally. The SARD worked fine when I first installed it, but after 5000 miles it bleeds down instantly after the fuel pump shuts off, and at WOT my fuel pressure dips to about 30 psi. So...

Searching around for a decent FPR, I found this Aeromotive 13301 Bypass Fuel Pressure regulator. 3/8" ports all the way around and 250 GPH.

I am pretty sure this is what I need, I just need some more experienced input on my decision. I want to get this right this time around, so please help me figure out if this is correct for my setup, Thanks!

Hummm, that one is weird looking. But from reading, you will be fine as long as you swap out the springs as mentioned.

These are the ones that I always run, the 30-70psi might be slightly better suited, never good to be near the end of the range on something IMHO.

That's a nice FPR, but because it is $20 more than the 13301, and requires more expensive connectors, I am prob going with a 13301.

The 13301 can utilize 3/8 NPT to 5/16 barb right angle fittings from McMaster-Carr which are about $5. The best price I could get for the AN6 fittings was about $12 a piece plus I'd need some AN to barb hose adapters. Trying to keep the costs down.

I tried looking for these on their site and couldn't find them. Did you buy them from another vendor?

This is mine - while running:



and my fuel pressure immediately drops to 0 when shut off. Dual fuel feeds for two Shark nitrous nozzles.

Yes, I found blue anodized aluminum ones on eBay. The McMaster ones were sold in a 10 pack that I did not need.
