yup, thats all it is. Hell mine i had to buzz the stock one in half and install the adjustable spring. That looks to just be a full replacement. Nothing special there. Just make sure you get a fuel pressure gauge (hooks into your fuel filter) or else that mod is worthless. No point in just modding the fuel pressure if you dont know what its at.

Exclamation argggg no guys...

on the stock one it has an O-RING on the fuel regulator it self it goes on there like flat on flat surface with 2 screws the other one doesnt. ill see if i can get a pic of what im talking about... but either way a fuel regulator works like this. ( correct me if im wrong. ) one vacum hose, one fuel line, and on the regulator itself has a hole that sends or gets gas idk. HENCE THE REGULATOR MOUNTED ON THE FUEL RAIL HAS A FLAT BOTTOM SURFACE THAT GOES TOGETHER WITH THE FLAT SURFACE OF THE FUEL RAIL. the performance one does not!

Default the picture

this is the oem fuel rail with the regulator on there. as you can see the regulator has 2 small screws that attaches it to the fuel rail. on the bottom of that regulator its flat. with a hole that has an O-RING which fuel passes by. so with that said, there is a vacum hose a fuel line on there and also that O-RING hose how do i get all 3 of them to work with a differnt regulator? i imagine it will have to be a specfic one. if anyone can help that would be great thanks.
