Default Fuel Pressure Regulator question?! TECHnical question, TUNERS please help!

This is a potentially stupid question about Fuel Pressure Regulators:

Do all fuel pressure regulators have 1:1 when under boost? In other words, like the AEM adjustable F.P.R. that I have raises fuel pressure for every 1 PSI of boost pressure in the manifold, I am wondering if stock Honda F.P.R.'s do this. If not then do factory turbo cars have 1:1 regulators (Turbo Eclipse for example)

Please expand upon this.

the only thing thats not 1:1 is a boost dependant fuel pressure regulator like the vortech FMU, jackson allso makes one along with cartech. The regualr B&M AFPR and the like are all 1:1
the stock honda is 1:1 and turbo eclipse and other factory turbo cars make up for fuel in the ecu not a piggy back FMU

I am absolutely aware of how factory turbo cars deliver fuel, of course not with an FMU.

Thanks for the information though.

Just whether or not all FPR's are 1:1 under boost.
