I dug around the web for some tweaks and mods and ran across a fuel pressure reg upgrade to a 4 Bar from a 2.2L Dodge turbo. I'm finding some that look awfully close but they don't have the bracket to bolt them down and they have a hose fitting where the stock Volvo reg has an o-ring to fit the rail. Has anyone done this successfully here who could help me out with this?

Why are you doing this? It will gain you nothing unless you need the pressure. I am still running the stock regulator.

 

I'm running the BWD 22823. Bolted right in. There is no benefit to doing this unless you're running E85 (I am) or you have a bigger turbo (I do). I dropped it in when my engine was still stock and there was no noticeable improvement in anything but then there was no noticeable detriment either. Idled, accelerated and gas mileage didn't change.

The whole point is to do the minor upgrades now while I don't have funds for the upgraded turbo and once I do upgrade, I'll have the minimum supporting components. I'm looking at a 16T at least since I'll be flashing the ECU down the road anyway. Fuel cut at 14 is annoying.
