Your stock fpr will regulate your fuel pressure just fine.
You will need to tune your fuel pulse width via the ecu. Read http://www.phearable.net/tech/efibeginnerguide.html

no, that will not work because you will need to lower fuel pressure dramatically in order ot get the same amount of fuel volume, but even at that the injectors will have an inefficient spray pattern and will not atomize.

You do not need a fuel pressure regulator and the stock one will suffice and give you realibility much more then a cheaper fpr.

What you need to do is install the injectors and walbro 255 and have the car tuned. Basically during this event you will be telling the computer how much to pulse the injector to get the correct amount of fuel volume atomized into the chamber.

thats the B&M FPR, you mod. your stock one. You really dont need to do anything with it, it works fine to over 400hp with no needs of modding it. its more of a look at me thing under the hood than a functional piece

oh really? yea i remember him making 680 at rrev too. either way 730 aint far off from 754. and myles is the one that even told me he made that up at ETS. if anyones wrong itll be myles on this one. you cant argue with what you said myles since everything you say is right.
