The use of all CAPS is considered yelling on the forums.

The oil pressure regulator is easily serviced and can be replaced seperately from the pump.

You could plumb in an external regulator to yours, but you already have a full flow return, so you can adjust your fuel pressure by simply shimming the stock regulator.

If I'm reading him right, he's talking about the high pressure oil system, not the fuel system.

You are correct, we were talking oil system, but the only external pressure regulator visible in my gallery is my fuel pressure regulator, so I assumed we switched to fuel.

It's on the drivers side of the fuel filter bowl. It's got the return line threaded to it and a couple of torx screws holding it on the bowl.
