The survival of your engine could depend on the performance of an FPR thats why i went for a fuelab and not a cost cutter one

When buying an FPR, ask what the maximum design operating pressure is. If the supplier does not know, walk away.

Here are the pressure spec's for three of the well known regulators. The Fuelab is certainly rated on the conservative side.

Be aware there are two Fuelab designs.

Only if you are running low boost so that the boost and fuel pressure combined are well below 5 bar and will never be needed to approach that figure.
