85 928 Euro S - Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Can anyone reccomend a particular AFPR suited for a 928? Sources and will it need an adapter of some sort?
TIA!

See this one from 928 Specialists:

The base is the same as a stock unit with an adjustable diaphragm on the other end.
Do the EuroS cars have dual FPR's like the L-Jet cars? If so, most people replace one of the regulators with an S4 dampener versus running two regulators.

Dual FPR - Yes, the Euro S does have two. So I will need to replace one FPR with an AFPR then replace the second with the Fuel Pressure Dampner.
Thanks again for the link - Ill contact 928 Specialist to check on availability and shipping.

As james points out below this is the wrong reg that I posted. please ignore.
I may go this way drew but have not decided yet.

I have the Aeromotive equivalent of that on my car. I T-ed the supply line and ran directly to each rail. The outlets of both rails are T-ed back together and pass through the regulator. I have no damper. They aren't really necessary, ever.

I have 2 of the 928 specialists ones on my 85 euro. I like them, tighten up the fittings good and they really need to be dialed in on a dyno along with the MAF screw adjustment to get things just right.

I'm sure that's a find unit, but I'd be hard pressed to stray from OEM quality Bosch unless I needed something with higher output or something different with the adjustment range.

The JEGS unit is for dropping pressure to feed into carbs...."Adjustable outlet pressure from 5-12 PSI with a maximum inlet pressure of 20 PSI. Made in USA ......" pretty much useless on a high pressure fuel injection system......

Some of the links have expired, but Post 13 in this thread shows the unit that I've inherited along with Jim's 84 Euro
The wire running out of the unit is a sensor for an electronic fuel pressure gauge.
He used that gauge and a wide band O2 sensor to improve his set-up.
If you need more information (pictures), let me know, the car is getting some maintenance work done and the fuel regulator is disconnected and visible

A rebuilt MAF is the first essential to get a Euro S2 running corectly. Make sure the injectors are flowing correctly, an ultrasonic clean often helps (did on my S2). I don't think you need to up the fuel pressure unless the car is very heavily modified.
Otherwise fitting adjustable FPR is a waste of time and money, in my opinion.

Jim's effort definitely started with a rebuilt MAF.
John upgraded the 84 electronics. Not sure how that applies to your situation.
The wide band sensor was needed -- you have to measure the effect on stoichiometry
Basically, all Jim did was raise fuel pressure about 5 lbs to trick the car a bit into burning another mixture which made sense to him at high rpms..
Not sure, 30K miles later, and for my lighter driving style if its the right pressure anymore.

I have been reading this thread and from what I read is that my 86 32-V and 85 16-V Euro both have 2 fuel pressure regulators. I have changed out the Bosch on the drivers side on the S/C 32-V with an adjustable; one seems like I only did 1/2 of the job.
