FPR Part Number Question 200 1986

While shopping around for a new Fuel Pressure Regulator I found this on the "foreigncarpartsonline.com" website:
"0 280 160 293 see NOTE!; This pressure regulator (0 280 160 293) is the unit recommended as a replacement by the Volvo dealer and has superseded the regulator that Volvo originally installed on most of these models at the factory (1306965, 0 280 160 214). Some installers have reported lower than optimum fuel pressure with the replacement regulator and have preferred to install the original equipment version (which Bosch continues to manufacture) instead.;"

Anybody heard of this one? Should I really have a preference?

BTW, my local FCPGroton lists the ...293 part number for $67.83. Seemed salty so I found it through RockAuto.com for $20.79. Never bought from them. Thoughts?
