Going to be installing a return style fuel system in the next couple of weeks. I have the lethal budget plus system, which is a dead head set up. looking to see pics of where guys have mounted their fuel pressure regulators.

also what is a good base pressure to set it at to make the car driveable to get to my tuner?

I mounted mine on the backside of the drivers side strut tower near the brake reservoir. Mine is all custom lines, but still dead head feeding the back of each rail. I have no evap or EGR stuff in the way.

Set base pressure at 40 with car off. Check for leaks ect. Get the car up to temp, adjust it to 40 again. Should be good to go. Your tuner will tell you what to set it too.

Depending on fuel injectors ect you might raise it higher. But 40 is where to start.

Mine is mounted behind the passenger head light. I did a buddies a couple weeks ago and it's mounted under the relay block by the intake tube.

I set them both to 40psi with the engine running and vacuum disconnected.

Right front fender.

Seems most of us have a death wish of burning to death from a frontal impact lol.

I’ll try and find a pic

Go into the terminator how to section.

MalcolmV8 has a thread about how to wire for factory prime or something similar.

Lots of pics and good info to have your pumps not run constant with the key on.

Same here. Right front fender. I used the studs that hold the bumper on as a mounting point. This keeps the heat off of the regulator and prevents the fuel from picking up heat on the regulator.
