Default Good Boost Reference Fuel Regulator

Just what the title says. Looking for a good boost reference fuel pressure regulator for my procharger setup. Going to mount it to the fuel rails. Any suggestions?

We run Aeromotive's on the majority of our projects, great quality. I'd reccomend staying away from Fuelab, as we've busted two diaphrams recently on them.

People should be asking you what your pump/setup situation is before recommending a regulator.

Aeromotive for about 5 years now, still going strong with no leaks or issues ever.

13101's what we use on most applications as it's in stock at our local performance supplier (Smileys Racing Products), but it really depends on what fuel system you have setup, different regulators come with different size inlets and outlets, etc.

I have run the Aeromotive and now have a Holley-I like the ones with o ring fittings, less rest. than pipe fittings, less chance of leakage
Both keep steady pressure, rise with boost fine

I agree. I have used Aeromotive's various regulators for years and never have had any problems with them. Bob

Curious why you say that? If he is running stock rails, no, but otherwise...
