I have an fse 'power boost valve' to use with the carbs i'm running in order to take the fuel pressure down, but will it function properly connected onto the flow fuel line? Because usually, on a fuel injected car it is on the return fuel line...
The fse came off an c20LEt
any help appreciated

they are designed to 'back up' the pressure, as you said they put the pressure on the fuel return. not sure if they can be used to regulate an output pressure........

You want a carb regualtor, FSE powerboost valve is an injected one, carbs run 3-5psi normally, it doesn't control the flow out of in only the pressure in to it.

Yea, this is what i thought, just controls the pressure behind it and chucks the unwanted fuel past it.
What about this one? clicky

damnit, that pressure regulator can only take up to 10 Psi from the pump! Injection fuel pumps pump at about 3 Bar don't they?
