So you already have the 3.0bar fpr in your car, if it has not been modified.
Turbo 900's have a 2.5 bar fpr stock. You often hear about turbo owners upgrading to a 3.0 bar fpr along with other upgrades, such as an apc box upgrade. This is because the higher bar fpr helps prevent engine knock (causing the knock sensor & the apc to back boost off) under higher boost conditions. In other words, the 3.0 bar fpr allows turbo owners to upgrade their cars to boost higher w/o encountering knock.
