Fuel Pressure Reg.

1994 Mazda MX3
Basicly i need a new one so i decided to find the old one
Then i followed the cords to a little device some sort of sensor that has an electrical sensor plug and 3 tube connects
1 going to the Fuel Pressure Reg
1 going to somewhere near the Throttle
1 i assume was in my air box
Now when i removed my air box and put in a CAI i unplugged alot of stuff. Then i took a look at my old air box and i found a little whole that matches the diameter of the tube. So i was wondering if this tube was important and what it did?
Thanks.

Basicly i just cant seem to understand if it did go in my Air Box then what does it have to do with Fuel Pressure and a Sensor if i have a MAF... Little Parts confuse me..

I wondered about this too...you can't just unplug the wires to it, because it throws a CEL, but you can delete the vacuum lines that go to it though...it is some sort of ecu thing that controls fuel pressure a bit, but not needed though..
just put a vacuum line from the intake to the fuel pressure regulator.
there should be a nipple near the FPR to use.

I figure its a Mini-MAF but w/e ill just stick it in the intake just to be safe. Thanks... But the real problem is i have the stock rubber intake hose but a aftermarket Filter. And i still have the little rubber hose from the Regulator Sensor thingy but the thing is putting it in my Intake... Any Ideas?
(Drill a Hole? lol)

I give you my answer to a custom 1hour job *a little big* Stock/Aftermarket Fused Togethor
I call it the 'Stock Market' Intake System
(Patent Pending...)

wow, that's a lot of work to hook up a sensor that doesn't do anything
but nice ingenuity though...I give ya credit for that.

If you can do that, why didn't you just make a CAI and tap into it?
Good luck with patenting the Stock Market...

I am stealing this pic to ask a question ... which of the 5 wires connected to the MAF sends the temperature to the ECU ??

why did you want to keep the intakes "resonator tube thingy" so bad?
