To add on, the reason it won't do anything is that the FPR is designed to keep the fuel pressure constant relative to the intake manifold pressure. So if more flow is provided by a higher capacity pump, then th FPR will compensate. There is of course, a range of operation, which is the reason you might see a higher pressure at idle as it may not be able to open the orifice any more to decrease fuel pressure. But as you open the throttle and more fuel starts flowing, the FPR will not need to bypass as much fuel and will be within it's range again, reverting back to the set relative pressure. And since the relative pressure at hiher flows will be the same as the factory fuel pump, the injectors will not be able to flow any more fuel. If anythin for a low boost set-up to be run on stock injectors, run a decently matche Rising rate regulator and call it a day. As many negative remarks I see people give about RRFPR's, they work(to a certain amount of boost) and are simple and cheap. I ran one for a year with absolutely no problem.
