what are some of the better ones at a resonable price? I assume AEM and Aeromotive are good. Any others?

are you talking about fuel management units for boost.

or just a general fuel pressure regulator

because the fmu are also fuel pressure regulators too.

I was thinking just a regular fuel pressure regulator not a FMU. The biggest reason i want to something is to have a more secure fitting. all I have now is a clamped rubber fuel hose on the stock regulator. I thought most people frowned on FMUs?

I am running DSM 450ccs with crome. Would a FMU be of use?

EVERYONE frowns on FMU, they are garbage. you dont need one if you are using crome and 450cc injectors.

go with a aeromotive FPR those are the best and they arent that expendsive like 175-275 they use an fittings like what your looking for thats what im using

Stay stock until you have problems. You run FPR's NA because anything beyond a v-afc for an extra 5whp is pointless. For boost you run an EMS, which makes an adjustable fpr useless until you run 300whp+. By then you might want to make adjustments or use one that deals better with a large pump.
