Which Fuel Pressure regulator did you buy for your CA and why?

I've got a walbro fuel pump and I think it's probably part of the reason I seem to go richer and richer at idle.

Is there a direct bolt one FPR I can buy or do I need to get one with an adapter?

If so what fitting does our fuel rail need?

I'd go with a SARD FPR it flows more than the Nismo unit.

I believe the Nismo unit flows about 168cfm while the SARD flows about 224cfm

Nismo unit works fine for me with a Walbro 255lph "high pressure" unit. And I'm not even near one end or the other of adjustment, so I've plenty of room to set the flow.

It sounds like the Nismo unit not being good enough would be a problem I wish I had :P
