Default anyone using a vortec fmu/sx regulator combo??
Just wondering if anyone here is runnin a NA-T with the Vortec FMU and Turbo SX regulator?

Any opions good or bad?

Just curious, because I saw a 2jz IS300 NA-T with both vortec and Turbo SX!
isn't both these units really the same thing???? (ie rising rate fuel pressure regulators)

thanks
Ken

I'd assume one is a standard adjustable 1:1 fuel pressure reg to replace stock (so you can adjust base fp) and the vortech is for actual boost compensation, 8:1 or so..

I used a 12:1 on my last car and they get kinda sticky every once in a while. I wouldn't go over 10:1. And definatly not with higher boost.
