In CJM kits with billet rails, the regulator is after the rails. In CJM kits with stock rails for VHR, the regulator is before the rails. This adapter is used to splice fuel for a regulator off the fuel rail inlet tube at the front of the engine : https://cj-motorsports.com/products/...p-4-way-2-bolt
Fuel dampers are highly recommended. The more the merrier, but we have found in most cases that VQs with a damper on each rail do well enough without the 3rd one on the feed line.

drop down selection 320.0086 is an adapter that allows -6 connection to the stock fuel pipe.

this is a real simple adapter if you want to replace the damper with a AN adapter to make a new feed line and dont need the outlet for a regulator/return like the 4-way adapter I linked above. |
Dampers in the aftermarket fuel area were non-existent up until recently. My awareness of them started with the VQ. Then you started to see them more and more.
For what I understand these remedy an effect of resonance and pulse in the rails from every closing of each injector, the first one absorbing any pump related pulses that could resonate in a way it affects airfuels
Would this mean ANY decent fuel system HAS to have this or is this particularly related to return less systems, types of injectors and type of firing of these injectors.
