Default Noob FPR question..
sorry for the noob question but.Does the FPR run off of direct vacuum from the intake or does it need to go through that check valve ?

straight vacuum. If you ran a valve it would lock into a high pressure state. Instead of pressure rising and falling as needed by engine demand it would go high and stay there....car wouldn't idle really well.
