if you do not remove the stock regulator then the pressure will never drop below stock pressure, no matter how low you turn down your new regulator... you will only be able to adjust it up

if you hook a vaccum line up to the new regulator.. it will try to drop to 50psi but the stock regulator will squeeze it back up to 60.
