I wouldn't bother with an adjustable regulator, work out the pressure you need to get your injector to flow enough and go fixed rate;

I had advice from two different tuning companies to ditch the adjustable one as they don't keep a constant rate.
£70+ for a filter! that's madness, guessing the anodising makes up 60% of the price, try this SYTEC FUEL INJECTION PUMP PRE
FILTER 909 044 COSWORTH | eBay , same quality less than 1/3rd the price.

Try these guys, they are cheaper (who isn't) than demon tweeks. I've got a fse AIR007 on mine with a gauge, it works perfectly and holds
pressure steady. As far as i can see FSE and sytec are the same thing but with the sytec you are paying more for the anodised finish and a slightly
different designed adjustment screw. Are you in a rush for one? Once my iva is done in 2 weeks time if it passes i will probably be taking it off
again as i won't need it anymore.
