I just looked in my Bosch part reference. The 0 280 160 001 is a pretty
standard Pressure Regulator thats been used on Porsche, Renault, Saab, VW,
and Volvo starting in 1969. I wonder how special it can be? Also notable
is that all of these seem to be D-Jetronic which uses an adjustable
regulator but no tie to manifold vacuum/boost.
