What's an air fuel regulator? Something that alters the lambda signal to fiddle more power out of the car? I'd guess so. Take them out, flog them on ebay to some barry-boys and use the Power FC. I don't think there's anyone on here who would seriously consider these kind of gizmos to make proper power.

I've never like FCD devices anyway. There's a reason why fuel cuts are put there, so you don't break your engine.

both unneeded with powerfc so deffo remove.. you should see most of the wires are just connected into the loom so you can just cut them.. and the signal wire they alter will have and in and out.. and you need to reconnect it etc..
if fitted properly the connectors for the in and out should just plug back together
