OK So I have a bone stock RB25DET, A Walbro 255 external and I am now ready to replace the stock fuel regulator with an aftermarket unit because the engine was "breaking up" when I tried to floor it at 10Lb of boost
1: What is the RB25 Stock fuel pressure?
2: What is the maximum safe level I can carry it to for a stock engine
3: At 10Lb Boost What pressure should I carry it up to?
Another thing is I see the regulator has three liines
Feed from pump
Out to fuel rail
and line that seems to be for a vacume hose?

Stock fuel pressure is around 35-38psi you can run up to 40psi base pressure.

What's the advantage of running at 40 base pressure on a stock motor?

If the car breaking up on WOT when on boost, check your plugs and the gapping.

im running it at 43psi / 3 bar, revs smoother and a bit faster.
