Didn't take very long, about an hour.  No real increase in HP, at least I can't tell.  More throttle response, especially from standing still.  I have it set for now at 51 PSi, stock being around 47.

You can take a closer look at DKN.

Jason,

what other benefits would a fuel pressure regulator give you besides an increase in fuel flow?

From some of the dyno charts if seen on different engines...its really more on the torque side of things. Throttle response was noticed the minute I took it out, it could have been just my perception. I will be taking it to the dyno soon.

Jay, in a typical application how much hp and torque are we talking here? How much did the regulator cost and who makes it?

Dave,

Familia has some information on it. Check out this link. Once I get time to dyno....you'll be the first to know.

Average gains are around 2 HP with an aftermarket intake and depends which setting the FPR is set.. Be cautious as I mentioned before, running it at a high setting on long intervals will fry up your injectors..
