Its an Aeromotive so yes its adjustable. He shouldn't have to adjust it after the new fuel pump though.

Loosen the adjustment lock nut on the top of the FPR and turn the (allen head) adjusting screw in (clockwise) a few turns. If the reading on the pressure guage does not go up there is a problem with the gauge or with the FPR.

5 psi is virtually no fuel pressure, so your car would not be running. check at the rail for diag.

yes, but that doesn't help you really. when u put in his pump what did the fuel pressure read? afr? Did you put ur 255 or 400 in his housing then put it in your car to check your pumps? It just doesnt make sense that your only getting 5 psi regardless of how you set you FPR.
