Hey All..
I've recently installed a VLT Plenium onto my Car, Now i wanted to know if there is a difference between the n/a and turbo fuel regs? if so should i just buy a new turbo regulator or any other different ones?
Specs are basically, n/a motor, vlt injectors, 1.9mm cometic head gasket, wade 818 cam, t3 @ 10psi, 3 inch exhaust and worked auto
Thanks

They are a different shape to suit the different manifolds... you can use the non-turbo one and it will work but it won't neatly bolt to the turbo manifold

Hey mate, do yourself a favour and get a brand new Turbo fuel regulator from Nissan. You can still get em, its about a 3 week wait, costs about $180.
I got a similar set up to you and it runs no problems. I know other guys running 10s with that same reg so will handle it no worries.

The n/a reg will work but only sensors vacum.The turbo regs work both under vacum and boost.

Yeah sard & turbosmart regulators are good. BTW I'm using a aeromotive fuel regulator & found it holds pressure well. It's a rising rate aswell.

Any of the better brands are ok.. I've always used Aeromotive but its only because I am comfortable with them. Turbosmart, SARD etc etc are all good.
