that's really all you need unless you you're trying to get more out of the injector. If so, I say aeromotive.

You can squeeze more fuel out of your injectors by running a higher FP.

Hmmm...I allways thought you needed and aftermarket FPR to deal with the additional fuel flow of aftermarket fuel pumps....

...and that some OEM FPRs don't raise fuel pressure at a 1:1 ratio?

well im a huge fan of adjustable FPR's simply because more fuel pressure = better atomization...
increase fuel pressure and bring down duty cycle alittle to compinate for the added fuel pressure...
i usually run 4bar fuel pressure(58psi) base and about 25psi of boost leaving me at about 83psi of fuel pressure after reaching full boost.
but thats just me.

aeromotive is my choice, but paxton makes a pretty good reg as well. and sx regulators are good as well.

just a note about aem regulators, i have seen 2 fail, so far one dumped so much fuel, that it hydro-locked the engine.

Get an Adjustable Fuel pressure regulator! Can lower or raise your fuel pressure to Cater to your needs. It is needed also since Aeromotivce and others are 1:1 ratio, I am getting my own Fuel Pressure regulators made , price on them is about $115 shipped , great regulator! Boostfed Racing Fuel Pressure Regulator


Either one of these or an Aeromotive which I sell also. I had an AEM go bad on me before also.


We have been using these Race Regulators on many many high power Supercharged and Nitroused Mustangs and alot of DSMs also. These work great!

the disk in my AEM regulator went bad recently after only 1,500 miles of use.

If you are not going to use a stock one, I would def suggest an Aeromotive

AEM FPR

Doesn't seem like too many people know this...but any regulator will increase the pressure on a 1:1 level once in boost.

I ran my AEM for about 3 years and all good until earlier this year making 600whp it wouldn't control fuel pressure well at all, dropping fuel pressure up top, changed to an Aeromotive and problem solved.
