Default Supercharged Fuel Pressure regulator Integra. HELP

I recently bought a Edelbrock Fuel rail for my 95 JRSC GSR and i used my AEM fuel pressure regulator only to find out it would not fit, it hit against my supercharger bracket for pulley. I am going to sell the AEM and I want to buy a fuel pressure regulator that i can mount on firewall. My question is what regulator is good? I was liking the edelbrock one, but then came across one from comptech, but it is also a boost dependant one, so could i replace my FMU and AEM fuel pressure regulator with the comptech???
Help is greatly appreciated, Thank you.

The Comptech one is just a fancy rising rate regulator and is way overpriced, IMO.

You can't get the AEM to fit even using the FPR adapter plate that comes with the JR kit?

I bought the car with the superchargeron so i dont have the adapter. I just found out that when you get hondata you are supposed toi get rid of the FMU anyways so i think I'm going to get the aeromotive regulator.

If you plan on getting Hondata, the Aeromotive unit will work just fine. Why did you replace the stock fuel rail though? The stock fuel rail + AEM FPR is a super easy solution that will easily support 400-500 hp.

Unless there is a specific reason that you got that fuel rail, I'd consider just putting the stock one back in and using the AEM. That was my setup on my JRSC'd 2000 Civic Si and it worked like a champ.
