I have a 255lph fuel pump and never got a new fuel pressure regulator for my car. Is this hurting performance or just wasting more gas than i should be? Thnks...BTW the car is a near stock 5.0 if you didnt know...

shit, didnt even think about the injectors... So the injectors are only still pushing the stock limit, no matter the pump size?

to a point the 255 fuel pump is getting the fuel to the injector faster than the stock one, if your cars close to stock then injectors shouldn't be an issue right now.

Not hurting anything at all or wasting anything either. It is a good/cheap mod.

Hehe yeah i know, wasnt saying that i wanted to change the injectors, i was just explaining how it hit me that its not causing any problems cause the injectors hold the limit either way.

Your fine you can probably adjust the fp a lil if you get an aftermarket regulator but right now I wouldnt worry about it.
