Default Will a FPR act in the same way as APEXi SAFC??????

I might be running a cam set up on my integra and I was wondering if a AEM Fuel Pressure Regulator/gauge (or another brand) do the same thing as the apexi safc? I know with the SAFC you can adjust the air flow thoughout the RPM range and the FPR you have a set PSI but will the FPR help with a lopy idle and allow me to run a cam set up safely once tuned by a dyno shop.

the afc will be a much better way to tune the car. a fuel pressure regulator will just up the pressure all the time, not necessarily a good thing. the motor will not always need higher fuel pressure all the time, and you will be wasting gas, and hurting performance by running too rich. get the afc.

an safc is good for taking fuel away. but if you try and correct +11% or more (adding fuel) the ecu wont read it and will throw a cel. For better results use fpr and safc. for best results go hondata
