Ok. For those of you that have this, have you ever had a problem with this? Since day one of install, my car acts like it doesn't want to start for the first 5 seconds, and when it does, it wants to die then it finally catches.

Ok, yesterday i even took it out, rechecked all my connections and reinstalled it. Same problems, the car acts like it doesn't want to start for about 5 secs. I put my stock one back in, starts 1st click. I dont know if thats suppose to just happen or what.

Is it flooding at startup or what? I took it out and have my stock one back in because i don't want to wear down my starter by keep cranking it over and just hoping it will start. Thats BS, and if its meant to do that, then i guess i didn't quite understand the purpose of the FPR or something. I have PMed John and emailed him, no reponse. Can anyone help me out here or give me some insight of why its doing that?

Hmmmm, well.... what are your mods? It could be that the injectors are getting overloaded with the pressure... I know the stage 3 uses the same pressure but has another regulator right on the rail to compensate....

Its an install issue. Did you get the factory o-ring out of the feed hole? How hard did you push to install the new FPR with the mod installed? Did you lube the o-rings on the new FPR when you installed it? If any of these were missed then you are going to get hard starts and long crank times./
