What do u think of the Sard units stu? For a none YB, would it be worth considering seeing as you don't already have a weber unit as std?

The pressure reg isn't the problem, so lonmg as it has suffecient flow for 500bhp from the pump it will regulate to whatever it is set to.

That is incorrect. If your fuel pump is big enough you can have issues if the regulator can't bypass the excess.

I'll have to think about that one, but you would have to be seriously over pumped to do that.

It won't be incorrect on full boost in Roosie's case as he is having it mapped with the reg on that he is using, hopefully on 9th feb.

but, you increase fuel presure 1:1, so you still have the correct pressure on boost.

The issue is you can't get the fuel pressure LOW enough if you're over-driving the regulator. Try it and see.
