boost referenced regulator in the trunk ?

right now am collecting parts for a twin turbo setup.
the question is can I run boost referenced regulator in the trunk ? with a hard line from the engine for the pressure signal ? will it add any lag to the fuel delivery ? I want the unneeded fuel to circulate near the fuel tank .

you will have response issues based on fueling demands

Once the system is pressurized I don't know why it would make an appreciable difference.

FWIW I'm running my regulator back by the rear end and don't anticipate any issues. I know of another RX-7 that runs the same setup with no ill-effects.

more in transient areas, not so much steady state. Will he lose an engine over it, probably not.

This is essentially how some return-less fuel systems work. It should be ok. Don't make the vacuum reference line too big of a diameter.
