Large Diaphragm Design:
The Type L features a large diaphragm design that provides improved response and more stable fuel pressure control compared to smaller diaphragm regulators. The larger diaphragm surface area allows for more precise control and better response to rapid changes in boost pressure, making it ideal for turbocharged and supercharged applications.
1:1 Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Control:
The Type L provides 1:1 rising rate fuel pressure control, meaning fuel pressure increases 1 PSI for every 1 PSI of boost pressure. This maintains proper fuel pressure differential across the injectors under boost, ensuring the correct air/fuel ratio is maintained. The 1:1 ratio is the most common and effective for most turbocharged applications.
Adjustable 30-80 PSI:
The wide adjustment range of 30-80 PSI (2.1-5.6 kg/cm²) covers most applications from mild street builds to aggressive race setups. The adjustment is made via the top-mounted adjustment screw, allowing you to fine-tune fuel pressure to match your injector size and fuel system requirements.
-6AN Ports for Universal Fitment:
All ports on the Type L are -6AN (AN6), which is the most common size for aftermarket fuel systems. The -6AN sizing provides excellent flow capacity while being compatible with widely available fuel lines and fittings. The regulator features inlet, outlet, return, and vacuum/boost reference ports.
E85 Incompatibility:
This fuel pressure regulator is NOT compatible with E85 ethanol fuel or other ethanol-based fuels. The internal components are designed for gasoline use only and may be damaged by the corrosive properties of ethanol-based fuels. If you are running E85 or plan to run E85 in the future, you must use an E85-compatible fuel pressure regulator. Using this regulator with E85 will void the warranty and may result in fuel system failure.
How It Works:
The fuel pressure regulator is installed in the fuel return line between the fuel rail and fuel tank. The vacuum/boost reference port is connected to the intake manifold. Under vacuum (idle/cruise), the regulator maintains base fuel pressure (typically 40-45 PSI). Under boost, the regulator increases fuel pressure proportionally (1:1 ratio) to maintain proper fuel pressure differential across the injectors.
Why Tomei?
Tomei Powered has been manufacturing high-performance parts for Japanese vehicles for over 50 years.

Every Tomei product is engineered and manufactured to the highest standards.
Installation Tips:
- Install in fuel return line after fuel rail
- Mount regulator with ports facing down to prevent air bubbles
- Connect vacuum/boost reference to intake manifold
- Use quality -6AN fuel lines and fittings
- Set base pressure to 40-45 PSI at idle (with vacuum applied)
- Verify 1:1 rising rate under boost with fuel pressure gauge
- Check for leaks before starting engine
Perfect For:
- Turbocharged engines requiring rising rate fuel control (gasoline only)
