Default Fuel pressure regulators??

There's so any out there from like £30 to £180. I know sometimes you will buy cheap and they do the same as the expensive one but is it worth really paying 6 times more for component when it does the same job. I'm after buying a fuel regulator after buying a vf34 turbo there's just soo many choices. Would anyone recommend a good one to use which isn't mega bucks ? Thanks. I'm a noob to the tuning as you can probably see haha

The question is what makes you think you need a fuel regulator? Would need to know what targets you have in mind for your car?

I'm guessing you have a gb270 going by your name?

Its one of the most critical parts of the system so personally we always use the likes of Fuelab or SX but having said that it depends on the spec of car / injectors / tune / etc as often the std system with an uprated pump is plenty..........

I've got a uk2000 I got it cheap so I'm just trying to get around 350hp it's got a front mount intercooler. 3port boost solenoid 3"turbo back. Just ordered a vf34 and I was told of a friend I need a fuel pressure regulator too ?? So I'm just looking to buy one now but there's loads to choose from like I said from 30 quid to like 180

uprated fuel pump yes , fuel regulator i can’t see why you need one , a better pump will give more flow and the standard subaru regulator will do the rest
