Well, i have a boatload of parts to install~ one of them being an adjustable fuel pressure regulator! I was pulling apart my throttle body/egr spacer and figured id tackle the fuel pressure regulator while i was at it!
I started to pull it apart and realized, there is no way in hell that i can get access to the two back bolts on the regulator? Is there a trick to removing the two back bolts? Do i need to cut my allen wrench down to get it in there or something?
Whats the trick?

Unbolt your fuel rail from the intake. And then lift it up. The injector will come up with or you can leave them in the lower it dosnt matter. Just lift it up and take the old one of and switch. It took me about ten minutes

just make sure that you're careful not to break the rubber line between the two sides of the fuel rail because if you do you won't be happy

pull the upper intake, its alot easier! the bolt closest to the fuel rail is the hardest! you really got to get in there for it, pita!

dont bother with the fuel rail bolt, it didnt help me much, it was easiest to just pull the upper, its only 6 bolts and a few plugs, just kinda move it outa the way and start digging!
