Do I need an Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator?
Hey guys, I am about to get my prelude running here pretty soon, and I was wondering if and aftermarket FPR is a necesity for my setup, because I am looking at the Synchronic and the Aeromotives, also, feel free to let me know if there are any more upgrades in my fuel system that I should be thinking about, thanks.
BTW: I am looking for mid 600-700whp.
The setup:
Walbro 255hp Fuel Pump
PTE 1000cc injectors
BDL Fuel Rail
H22A4
Benson Sleeved
CP 9:1
Pauter Rods
Fully balanced
Portflo Head
Supertech Valvetrain
OneFab Top Mount
GT35R T4 .68a/r
Turbosmart 48mm Gate
3" Downpipe/3" Cutout
2.5" IC Piping
Greddy 24 IC
Neptune
Blacktrax Intake manifold

Yes you do it is almost a necessity for tuning. Also you will probably need a bigger pump for that horsepower level and a stock regulator will have trouble regulating fuel pressure with anything bigger than a 255.

Okay, well, looks like I will be ordering one then. Do you guys know anything about he Synchronic FPR, because it looks like a good unit, but I will most likley go with an Aeromotive.
