It depends, look here (https://www.paragon-products.com/Sea...x=0&Search.y=0).

NA/951 are 2.5bar, the S/S2 used 3.8bar
|
I thought it was 43psi 3 bar

also found out turbo s is 3.5

From Porsche PET:
944 110 198 03 = Bosch # 0 280 160 227 = 2.5bar for ’86 to early ’89 Turbo 944 110 198 05 = Bosch # 0 280 160 286 = 2.5bar for ’89 – ’91 Turbo My ’89 uses the early regulator with the barbed fuel line fitting. Later regulators have a threaded pressure fitting. In general, the 3bar regulator is used with higher than stock boost. Check Clarks Garage for more specifics. |

I have a 1987 924S and happen to have a spare NOS FPR which is Bosch # 0 280 160 263. It looks like it will fit the 924S but the original part is 0 280 160 227. As I understand this thread, the original on the car is a 2.5 Bar unit and this potential replacement is a 3.5 bar unit.
Will I do any harm if I introduce this? I'd just like to make use of spares I have :) Thanks! |

I actually think my SPARE is the correct part. I think the 1987 924S was supposed to have the 3.5 bar unit. These three sites seem to show the Porsche part # which translates to 944.110.198.03 or 05.... http://www.einmaligparts.com/Fuel-co...05_c_9421.html https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...263316&jsn=368 http://dcautocatalog.com/illustration/index/480484416 Seeing that the FPR is now in the stratosphere price wise. I think I'll use my spare. Complain really REALLY loudly if you disagree ;) |

Complain really REALLY loudly if you disagree ;) 2.5 Bars = 36.2594345 Psi and the FPR is vaccum operated, would the higher rated FPR need more vaccum to operate it correctly? https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...eedb339ee5.jpg A fellow p-car owner posted this |
