Lee, if you get a pump that flows more fuel, how are you going to set the fuel pressure if you dont get a pressure regulator? You might be getting too much or not enough fuel...

You see, that is the question. I would think the standard car will have some sort of a fuel regulation system, probably deciding how much energy is needed for a given fuel pressure, or am I wrong??

fitted the controller and fuel pump, well pleased....
car seems smoother on boost, no spikes or jumping about.
spoke to alan at dragon about the pump/regulator, he reckons neither are a must at this level but the pump is nice as it lets more fuel be available if it is needed.....only problem is you can hear it hum a bit when sitting on idle.
regulator is only needed if you go the apexi route of leaning it out to avoid the fuel cut, their 400bhp demo car has not had this done, so sort of proves a point.
