N75 & FPR

[Drill]

OK, I've been searching around a bit lately for info on the N75J and 4 bar fuel pressure regulator. What I've found has brought more questions to mind (and maybe even an idea /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif)

Anyway, I've read that while the N75J (and H) changes the characteristics of the std wastegate (Mainly by holding/building more boost) it's been mentioned that this additional boost is not accounted for by the ECU and therefore, no additional fuel is supplied.

I've also read that running a 4 bar FPR in leu of the std 3 bar part can lead to an engine running rich.

SO, here's my question/idea. While running a std K03 ("Sport") on a remapped car, would the 4-bar FPR help to offset the potential problems of the N75J valve?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Just trying to make some sense. I can really feel the extra pull that the N75J gives (While I have some hesitation issues to solve /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif) but as I put about 600 miles on my car each week, I don't want to run anything that could make my engine "go BOOM!" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/angel.gif

Drill i did vagcom runs with a J and with a standard F,standard was much stronger and smoother,J just spikes high readings ,but is not so drivable. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beerchug.gifAndy

Just put a J on my S3 in place of the N75c, wasn't too convinced at first. Took it out for a longer run, car seems smoother if anything, but with a bit more top end boost. Still not hit limp mode yet /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
Andy,
If I hang on to the old N75, Do you fancy testing the two valves using Vagcom? Maybe AMD will do this Sat?
See you on route,
Chris.

Was it easy to fit Chris?

If i can keep up Chris /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile_smoking.gif,Rich it takes 5 mins to swap,but original clips can be a t***t to remove and they can't be reused.I will bring the plots for valves with me on saturday and a spare j valve.Not long now boys and mines absolutely flying at the moment.Cheers Andy

Andy ,

do you know the part number of the J valve, trying to get a price for one from my dealer but wanted the part no first.

thanks

Mark

N75J - 034906283J

Still considering this myself but worried about going limp once chipped...

Me too. Does anyone have the AmD remap and the N75J?

Does it go limp? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

If it does go into limp mode ill just remove it again, but i plan on doing a few runs and logging the boost via VAGCOM to see how the original and J valve compare.

I really just want it to hold more boost, but if it gives me a big initial boost spike, which is what ive read itll be coming straight back off.

Thanks

Mark

Does snyone have a picture of these valves and where abouts they are located in the engine bay? i take it these are different to the DV?

Right,

By the DV, there is a golf coloured thing with a plug on it and 3 pipes... 2 small ones, and then it goes into the intake hose...This is the N75

The FPR, is at the end of the fuel rail by the injectors and have a vacuum line on it
