My fuel pulsation damper is bad and requires replacement. I don't want to spend $150 for a new one. Can I get a flange and tube made up to replace it. What ill effects would this have on drivability? I made a terrible picture to show you what I am thinking.



Forgive me its really bad!

 

that's what a lot of people do.

 

or if you want I have the dampner. Ill let it go for $50 plus the shipping. Just pm me if youre interested

 

$50.. damn didnt know that the parts I throw away were worth so much..

 

I don't have any personal experience, but I think the pulsation damper is worth holding on to.



The damper is designed to smooth out the spikes caused by the injectors duty cycling and reduce any other sharp jolts to the fuel systm.



Most of the people I spoke to that have eliminated the pulsation damper have done so when replacing the stock fpr at the same time. The SX fuel pressure regulator has a diaphram that acts as a pulsation damper. If you don't want to spend the money on the stock unit consider buying the SX FPR. It is $168+ the cost of a couple lines but it will also allow you to up your fuel pressure.

 

You can have mine for $44 shipped

 

Hey thanks

I think I will go with the after market regulator for almost the same price as a new regulator.

 

I ordered mine from these guys yesterday. They have most stuff in stock and are pretty organized.

I believe gothem racing also carries them for a few bucks less.

 

I remember a couple of weeks ago from the RX7Club forums, that someone mailled SX about their FPR. This also doubles up as an pulsation dampner.

My mechanic makes the end parts as you described and has the sx fpr, so yes it can be done .
