I ask because I'm pricing out the AN & aeromotive setup vs. the AEM honda w/ adapter setup.

I'm not sure what fitting it is but I remember seeing somebody posting a pic of the stock fuel filter with a fitting in it. Maybe someone else can chime in!

As for the pricing out... i did all of that yesterday About a year ago I was running the honda AEM + rob beck adapter and it worked great, but I ended up selling it. im not trying to get into that again because i didn't like how tight of a space it was wedged into. I think a remotely mounted FPR looks better anyways


heres a copy of my invoice from summit racing. keep in mind that I already have 2 swivel fittings here, so that saves me ~$30


AEI-13101 FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR A Shipped on 07/22/08 $139.95 1 $139.95
AER-FBM2410 STEEL FLARE SWIVEL A Shipped on 07/22/08 $9.99 1 $9.99
EAR-981410ERL -10 PORT PLUG A Shipped on 07/22/08 $5.39 1 $5.39
RUS-632100 PROFLEX HOSE #8-3' A Shipped on 07/22/08 $19.88 1 $19.88
RUS-663010 STRAIGHT PIPE TO TUBE A Shipped on 07/22/08 $5.95 1 $5.95
VDO-153003 PRESSURE GAUGE B Shipped on 07/22/08 $19.95 1 $19.95



total was about $212. i'd say you would save about $60-70 by going with aeromotive

Wow, great info man. Thanks!

You'll have to take a pic when you get it all mounted and installed. I am wondering where I would put it.

I was thinking somewhere on the firewall. Or maybe next to the passenger strut tower. I'm sure it's not a good idea to have that hose between the FPR and rail very long. I'll have to take a seat in front of my car with the hood popped and think of every possible route

Well despite the $ savings, I decided I like the clean tucked-away look of the AEM FPR and ek2 gauge adapter. Looks like I'll be going that direction.

But, I found a couple pics of Aeromotive units in the meantime:









Etc.
