The r12s filter is perfect with the exception that is only flows 15gph the diameter is perfect for the mk3 fuel filter bracket and the 140r mount isn't too expensive. I just think I would be starving the pump at sustained WOT.

ive been running that fuel filter for a year or more now.. havent even had to change fuel filters yet!!

it does NOT starve the engine of fuel, but i pressure feed my filters..
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.

I decided how to make room for the cat R1-0750 filter, it will be mounted off my corrado's radiator. Pictures will follow in the coming weeks.
