Side feed injectors are notorious for having issues... For some reason they seem to burn out... I am not sure why... Replacement cost on a single side feed injector that has gone bad is expensive...
It would be interesting to do a poll to see who has had issues with side feed injectors versus top feed injectors...
A full fuel system with external regulator will come with an adjustable regulator.. This will allow you to do global changes of your fueling.. you can lower your fuel pressure to lean things out across the board or turn up the pressure to add more fuel... By running 10 more psi than stock you actually increase the flow potential of your injectors by about 10% allowing you to make more HP on smaller injectors...
Most external regulators also have provisions for a fuel pressure gauge or sending unit for an in cab gauge... so there is no need to buy any adaptors to hook up your gauge....
External regulators will also bypass more fuel.. Putting a Walboro 255L HP fuel pump in your car will actually increase your fuel pressure due to the fact that the stock regulator will not bypass enough fuel...
Some aftermarket fuel rails really look much better than a factory fuel rail....
