Default 5Bar FPR Questions

Hi Guys,

Picked up a new 5Bar Fuel Pressure Regulator from my Local Porsche Specialist today.

However I'm a little concerned as to its validity.

It is a std 3.8Bar bosch unit p/n 0 280 160 616

but someone has hand etched 4.8Bar and etched out the 3 in the 3.8 factory marking with a handheld etching pen.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

I understood that porsche motorsport did a genuine 5Bar FPR and that is what I thought I had ordered?, I was expecting the unit to be a bosch unit but with factory markings like the 3.8 unit.

Without plugging in a Fuel Pressure Tester I have no way of checking the pressure to make sure it's doing the job. Should I send it back or risk it.

Any advice is 'as always', warmly welcomed.

Thanks

Thanks Keith,

Thats just the information I was looking for.

Now all I have to do, is figure out how to get this beer into the computer and over to you.

Much appreciated.
