yeah just a bit unsure which route to go down thinking about gt28rs iam wanting 300-350bhp but just unsure of a couple of things biggest issue been how long it will take to spool up.cheers for the part number.
Hi guys. Funny enuf I just logged on to try and find the part number for a 4 bar regulator. Cheers! [] As I understand it, it allows the fuel pressure to get to 4 bar. I am planning a Revo remap. Stage 1 doesn't need the extra fuel but stage 2 does. Other essentials for stage 2 are a good freeflow exhaust and an air induction kit. The regulator wont do anything to a standard engine. You need the remap to make use of the extra pressure. If u are fitting it yourself be aware that the fuel lines are under high pressure. If you pull out the fuse for the fuel pump and start the car it will use the fuel in the lines and make it safe to remove the regulator without hosing petrol over your face/engine/innocent bystanders.
I have seen a few claims of around 255 bhp for the stage 2 though Revo doesn't give figures on their site. I had a stage 1 on an otherwise standard engine and got 207bhp on the rollers so if you consider that you need a good exhaust, air filter and the regulator and they recommend a decat downpipe and uprated dump valve, 255bhp should be close
To give you some idea of how the re-maps work here goes from experience on my own car.
Remap and DV only first RR ever for me - 166bhp and 220lbft
Remap - CAI - Cat Back - DV - TIP - No reading car was jumping all over the rollers and AmD go scared and did not want to run my car.
Remap - CAI - Turbo Back decat - DV - TIP - 227bhp - 260lbft(running very high octane fuel and boost adjusted via lemmiwinks)
Remap - CAI - Turbo Back decat - DV TIP - FMIC - 227bhp - 240lbft standard bp ultimate
I have always felt my top end to midrange felt like it could give more so have been considering the 4 bar thinking this may help so anybody out there with an opinion ??
*Edited* Just read that you have an AUM.[:$].
I recon that from the stage you are at the only way to get more power would be to increase your boost
level or the way it is delivered.Does yours hold 1 bar all the way ? Maybe experimenting with boost controllers []

what stage map did you have ? is it a generic? think im going to get a custom one when i have my decat full Blueflame system, DV & 4 Bar FPR i already got a CAI
i just rang VW and they said they can not tell me what BAR pressure the FPR is but he told me the above part number is for a R32, can anyone confirm if this will fit my AUQ 1.8T and if it is a 4BAR?
No.Wait till you get there and if its required it wont take long to fit.
