Are these two different parts? If so, what's the difference? Also, which one comes in the Star turbo kit? Thanx guys.

The biggest difference, besides the price, is that you can change base fuel pressure on the SFMU, you can't do this on the regular FMU. Hence, if you get bigger injectors, you're gonna need some type of fuel pressure regulator that can decrease base fp. The Star kit comes with the regular FMU.

You can construct one using fittings that you can get at Home Depot. I'm not sure exactly what the exact parts are, my friend has done this with his SFMU.

Thanks again. Can that bleed valve be bought from Vortech? I looked around and I didn't see anything like that. If anyone knows what I need to get this going, it'd be awesome.

It's so you can fine tune the fuel. It lets you bleed some of the fuel off to lean out a rich burn. At least, that's what I've heard. emoji
