The factory system is returnless. The pump controls the pressure from inside the gas tank and only pumps what the car needs, you don't need a regulator to control the pressure.

turning up the pressure would do nothing
as Boilermaker1 stated the pressure is controled by the pump in the tank.

Actually, turning up the pressure would increase the amount of fuel each injector meters. It wouldn't work on our car (because as stated before its returnless), however if you have a return system you could force the car to run richer (if you wanted to). Of course there is trade-offs, such as shortening the life of your injectors....

Actually - it was great! I got back last Friday. As you can tell I've been busy! I still haven't gotten my cat yet (which means I can't have any exhaust work done yet). I was going outside to take some measurements right now actually. I might be going to California for a week or two though, not really sure at this point. But I will def have to stop by when I get a chance!
