I would avoid the cheap ebay ones, the one I had wouldn't hold a pressure half way through being mapped, ended up with i think a fse one, do you need a adjustable one? as wonder if a 3 bar fixed OE might be less hassle

I think the last time this thread came up, the Webcon one was suggested as a decent fpr, have a search to confirm.

As far as I could tell they use the Bosch cartridge as used by fords etc mounted in the fuel rail.I got a ford reg capsule and turned up a housing for it and have had no problems, there are a number of different ratings available as they are used on many different cars.

I bought a ~90 "quality" aftermarket one from a reputable online source (I actually genuinely can't remember who, it was about 2 years ago) and had it hooked up to a ~200 pressure sensor and a datalogger for a while. It was horrendously poor at generating repeatable pressure from one run to the next, like +- 1.5 psi poor.

God knows what the cheap ones are like but I suspect they'd struggle to be much worse
