Being injected, for your Volvo, you will need a high pressure regulator. Different kettle of fish to those oldfasioned low pressure carb types. Not sure where you would find one, maybee Speedtech could point you in the right direction.

Mike, I've got a couple of spare GTO ones in the shed, might or might not be suitable.

Justin, Andre had the brick on the dyno not so long ago, it was his suggestion as its ridiculously rich at WOT and robbing horsepower, but perfect of course for town / highway, hence the need for something adjustable street / strip.
He has them available, I`m merely trying to keep costs down, Mumsie continues to stress about the amount of dough spent on said brick !!!!
Steve, I`ll check with Andre and see if they`re suitable ...
Happy New Year to you all ....
Cheers Mike

Mike if you can makedo with a lower pressure carby type, Ive got a one meeting old Aeromotive one that also has a boost indexing feature, as boost increases it increase fuel pressure at a one to one ratio, I think.
will have a look at all the guff I have on it tonight, feel free to give me a call, you have my number, Im changing my fueling system as the fuel pump cant keep up with all demand currently and Im going to 2 regulators one for each stage of nitrous.
also OT, but Thursday night, do you know of a BBQ at Egans place, beleive youve been invited via PM on NZPC, but youve been to slack to answer.

EFI fuel pressure would typically be around 47psi, but being a turbo system, could need to go as high as 60?? Need I say more?
