Anybody running a fuel pressure regulator?
I just bought one and was wondering what the best way to set it up would be.
If you want to post some pictures that would be great, or just briefly explain.
I have a good idea what needs to be done but I'm always looking for the easiest/best way to go about it. Thanks guys!

Alright that makes sense. Would I have to eliminate all the stuff in the middle of the evap line, like right there in the engine bay too? Or would that line be good enough just how it is? Does anybody have pictures of this setup?
I was looking to get rid of that line anyways i don't want it being on the throttle body anymore.

Ez to say hard to do right. Unless you are revising your fuel system best to leave it alone. If you are revising it, OTTP have a good system and you would save the money for the fuel regulator if you have the right one....

Ok never mind i see what they're doing. It would be nice to figure out how to make it work with the regulator i have and not drop another 200 on their system. I could probably just get the evap fittings from them and use that.
Or would this work... Use the vacuum line that used to be on the boost regulator that comes from the intake manifold, which is now removed, for a few extra pounds of rail pressure on top of the stock one. Or would that mess with the tune?
I could just splice into the main fuel line that runs over the valve cover and mount it on the firewall and extend that vacuum line a little bit.
You could make any regulator work really. They all have an in, out, vacuum port, and adjustor screw. I Just don't feel like running a line all the way back to the tank. I think it can be done without having to be a return style...
