Since I am going to get my car tuned do I need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator since I will be doing away with my FMU? Right now the stock one is on it

if your getting it tuned leave the stock regulator on. a proper tune is going to tell the EEC what size injectors you have and if you jack up or lower the pressure the injector will essentially become larger or smaller and either make the car rich or lean and the computer will start trying to compensate. its just easier to leave it stock.

A good adj FPR is a good upgrade, they tend to be more consistant then a worn stock unit.
