the early 2gnt's had their FPR on the end of the fuel rail. well our later models have it in with the fuel pump if i'm correct. later

You may not need any more fuel at all. We generally run rich stock, so you may be doing pretty well after your air flow mods. I'd buy an exhaust gas temperature gauge before a FPR. That would help you decide whether you really needed more fuel. Search for "EGT" and you'll get plenty of hits.
And, please cut down your sig pic a little. That thing is f'ing huge at 1088 x 819. Something around 30-40k like the other people who responded to this thread, would be good. Thanks...

I'm with Corbin on the need for fuel. Add a beefier set of cams into the mix and then the need for fuel can arise. But even then a set of bigger injectors is probably going to be enough. No real need for an adjustable FPR, to push the stock injectors. I'd rather run a bigger injector at as smaller duty cycle.
