Default Aeromotive fuel pressure reg

Just wondering if it is worth fitting one of these for around 400bhp ?

your standard fuel presure reg is more than capable of standing up to that job.

what fuel pump or pumps are you using for that power Mark?

are you looking at running an external swirl pot in the near future aswell?

i do believe the 023 is going to be towards its limits at that power.

As said, the std one is well up to the job, it only alters pressure, so ius not rated as such in terms of bhp capability, as far more is pumped than used, hence the return, which also helps to keep the fuel cool.
