Basically causes the fuel in the fuel to come to a restrictor (the FPR) which causes pressure to build up, it is needed to help fill the needs of the engine. Benefits: Well, none for the 7thgen because I haven't heard of any out yet, but it would cause more fuel to be forced into the engine.

a fuel pressure regulator basically regulates fuel pressure.an adjustable fuel pressure regulator lets you adjust the fuel pressure to achieve the right air/fuel ratio.ours is inside the gas tank(i think).

A regulator won't deliver any more fuel than it gets from the fuel pump. If you went to higher capacity pump, etc for a turbo or nitrous, then you might want a manual regulator.

im with bartkat you really dont need one at the moment unless your running a HIGH performance machine you could get one but it wouldnt reallydo any good until you get a lot of major bolt ons and need to start tuning your fuel system for max potential
