Nice. What's the range of adjustability of the FPR? Is it pretty stable?

Default 30-70psi base pressure....

It's running at 60psi base right now, and hitting 79-80psi at full boost with no problems.

Default Hey John I just looked at how mine is setup on the car

They installed my new SX regulator exactly like the stock one. The fuel feed line goes to the fuel rail, then from the fuel rail it goes to one side of the FPR, the other side of the FPR then has the fittings for the pressure gauge and the bottom fitting goes to the fuel return line.

I guess the way you did it will work, but you just dont get a constant flow of fuel going thru the rail since your return line is before the rail, where as the stock way puts the return line after the rail.

Default OK, thanks...

I wonder if it makes a big difference?

At the very least, a constant flow of gas would cool the fuel rail down

Default IMO that is about the only difference. As long as your pump, lines & fuel rail are able to

deliver in excess of what the injectors are capable of siphoning off, I'd think having the return just before the rail wouldn't matter a lick.
