Fuel boost or turbo boost ?? 850 1994

Hi Again

Can anyone tell me what this aftermarket modification does. It was on the car when I purchased it from Singapore last year.

It is a large Italian made fuel pressure regulator that is attached by vacuum hose to the fuel rail on the left side of the engine, facing and a multi vacuum outlet above the idle air control value, beside the throttle cable drum on the right side. It then exits the muti outlet on the other side via a vacuum hose into a spring loaded, adjustable, brass bolt like fitting. It then continues by vacuum hose to what looks like another regulator of some sort behind the engine. It then exits this device and finishes up ( I assume because the car yard disconnected it ) in a pressure gauge on the dash.

The car salesman did say that the car was taken to a garage to have the turbo boost turned down because it was difficult to drive on the lot.
