Default Holiday Sale: Billet fuel pressure regulators

These are not a brand new product.....we've had them out and about for about a month or so, but I have not offered these for sale to the general public, before today.

Again, Special Holiday Pricing for Rennlist Members Only! Limited to existing inventory only!
First come, first served!

$250 for all '85 to '95 applications (Current Porsche pricing on the stock regulator is in excess of $625.)
For the '85 to '86 application, the custom German made fitting to attach to the stock rubber hose is $35, additionally. (With regulator. This is a sale price.)
If you want our custom one piece hose that runs from our regulator to the fuel cooler, these are priced at $120 (With regulator. Also a sale price.)




Side view of 3.8 bar fuel pressure regulator for '87 to '95 928 applications.



Top view of 4.0 bar fuel pressure regulator for '87 to '95 928 applications




'85 to '86 regulator with Custom German made fitting for attachment to stock '85 to '86 rubber hose.




'85 to '86 regulator with complete replacement hose that runs in one piece from regulator to fuel cooler. Eliminates the stock rubber hose, that crazy adapter on the back of the block and the hose from the adapter to the fuel cooler. Much better than original and far safer.



The housing is made from 6061 Billet Aluminum, CNC machined with proper fuel attachment fittings (with a radius that complements the existing fuel rail and hose design with a wide contact patch), eliminating any chance of leaks, when properly tightened. The side fuel attachment fittings are CNC machined in a lathe, inserted into the main housing, and then aluminum soldered, guaranteeing an extremely concentric seating surface. The bottom attachment fitting/fuel return hose fitting, while made integral with the body, is also completely CNC machined in a lathe, also guaranteeing perfect fit and concentricity.

The actual fuel pressure regulator is a selection from the late model design of Bosch fuel pressure regulators and is replaceable, when it fails, or should the desire to change your fuel pressure arise. These regulators are available in a range from 2.5 bar to 5.0 bar and are interchangeable with our billet housing. The housing is designed to last the life of the vehicle and is gold anodized to blend with the original pieces in the engine bay.

This Holiday Special is available to Rennlist members only and is limited to the inventory on hand. (These regulators have been extremely popular. I 'started" with ~50 units and currently have under 20!)


Note: Dampers are also available...although we are currently out of one of the pieces needed for assembly.
The dampers will also be offered at a Special Holiday price!

The distance from the center to center dimension of the fittings is the same as on an L-Jet car.
The issue becomes one of the fuel return line.

My custom fuel line adapters fit, but are too close to the intake manifold.
I'm working on a complete replacement fuel line, completely eliminating the rubber fuel hose sections.
Won't happen until after the first of the year....too much stuff going on.

Like with the L-Jet engines, I'm also trying to get rid of the rubber hoses on the Euro cars, in the engine compartment.
I'm really tired of leaking rubber hoses and fires.
Keeping/selling 50 year old "rubber hose technology", in the engine compartment, seems....well....pretty uninspired.

If you look at a modern car....any modern car....you will never see a rubber fuel hose.....anywhere!
Hasn't been done for over 20 years!

After the first of the year, I'll have my solution for both L-jet and Euro cars for sale, which will allow me to use my lifetime guaranteed Teflon/Kevlar hoses to connect to the regulators.

Will that integrated teflon/kevlar hose be an option for S4+ installs? Same integrated hose to replace the U?

Yes, we've had all the hoses for the S4 variation solved for many years. We sold hundreds of the infamous "U" hoses.

While Porsche has/still does offer the fuel return hose from the regulator to the fuel cooler and for the front damper to fuel rail, the most recent Porsche price increases make our version of these two hoses actually cheaper. (Up to now, we have been recommending that people buy those two original hoses from Porsche and not buy our hose, due to the factory hose being cheaper, but that is no.longer the case!)
We will still stock and sell the two Porsche hoses, but the smart money will buy our lifetime guaranteed Teflon/Kevlar/Polyester hoses for all four of the engine compartment hoses.

The question is will anyone even notice this doesn’t look like the original on my GT as I have to “be that way” even though it hurts sometimes.

Since it’s hidden and it works well I may as well take the win.

Mary (wife) told me yesterday that the stock $635 Bosch pressure regulators, from Porsche, are on back order....again.
.....Along with one of the dampers.

I asked her to confirm.

It's true.
Porsche is out of the fuel pressure regulator (928 110 198 25) for 1987 to 1995 928's again.
I've got several, in inventory, if anyone needs to spend 2.5X what my new billet regulator costs!
