Default FMU disc size?

Setup: stock B18B1: RC440, 255lph fuel pump, SAFC II, T3/T04E on .5bar daily/ .sometimes .8bar

I was told by the guy who is helping me tune my car that That I need to get an FMU aka rising rate regulator. I have seen a lot of people doing this but this is going to KILL my mpg. What size disc do you guys think I should run?

don't let him tune your car. you have everything you need except a wideband. fmus only affect fuel under boost so mileage won't change much, not that you need one.

II have never tuned before. I’ve searched a ton and read a lot of threads on tuning but don’t just it 100%. I’m one of those hands on people. I am hoping to learn as much as possible by this guy.

you only need a wideband for street tuning, the best and only really good tuning is done on the dyno, which the hook up the "sniffer" which is the basically a wideband
