How much psi can you run on a B&M fpr can you get 500whp with it?
Will a B&M fuel pressure regulator be able to go over 60psi and also whats the highest amount of psi can it be raised to,I would like to know this before I go out of my way and spend more money out of my budget.

It's about boost, not power...
The stock diaphragm on the regulator likes to tear and become inconsistent at about 14-16 PSI, depending on the condition and age.
If you have ID1000's (meaning lots of injector), you can make 500+ WHP with a very efficient engine setup (B20/VTEC + cams and big turbo) and keep the boost low, and stay below 60PSI of fuel pressure.
It is boost that requires a better regulator. The B&M + stock unit doesn't like to hold anything above 60 PSI peak fuel pressure at the rail.
