Sorry to Hijack, but ........
When you fit an uprated fuel pump, when should you consider a fuel pressure regulator ?
I have seen motors on here for sale that have the uprated pump, then state they also have the fuel presure regulator.

Not sure about newage cars.

Newage cars dont need the regulator but its a good idea fitting one IMO.
Firstly you can get more from your stock injectors than you would normally and your engine will also have a more efficient burn due to better atomisation of fuel due to the increase in pressure..
Bigger turbos need more jfuel and running more fuel pressure goes hand in hand with the fueling supply.
Your car will now be running very very rich with just the fuel pump fitted Cookie, you'll need a mapping session soon to adjust the duty cycle on the injectors... My car was running 103% duty cycle without the regulator, after the regulator was fitted we was able to turn that down to 88%.
Mine will need a bigger set of injectors soon but the pinks should cope with around 380bhp which is what the 20g will provide when wound up
Depending on how far you are wanting to go with your tuning id highly recomend running a parallel fuel rail setup to ensure you have the best fuel supply possible.

Currently looking into (and bidding) on a parallel fuel rail kit, and yes running rich it is, the flames are

Yeah, change of plan, ive only a few months to pay before the car is mine, so instead of loading up with 20k+ of debt agi8n decided to keep and spend some money on it.
Looking forward to show season, started building a lovely boot install as well
