Fuel Pressure regulators
just looking for a part number for an adjustable fuel regulator, any companies make them for the slk320,
also wondering if I could install a regulator from the m113 engine for more fuel pressure?
next question is...any similarity between the 230 kompressor and 320 regulators
what about the M113 interchanging with m112?
any pressure data is much appreciated.

the crossfires run lean under load, I want to bump up the fuel pressure to fix this.
I figure a higher pressure regulator is cheaper than spending $400 on slk320 injectors, I wonder if the crossfire's are using slk230 injectors? is this why we run so lean?
so what's the pressure options for fuel regulators on m112 and m113 engines?
Vath sells an adjustable reg. but it's too pricy right now.

C32s run low12s and high11s AFRs, I would imagine Crossfires SRT6s are not far off.

The SRT6 is a different deal, it's the NA crossfire with 320 motor that runs lean, under high load in 6th gear for over 30 seconds, the cats start cooking, this is why the dealerships are always replacing the cats in the NA cars.
TVT replaced the stock 15.1 lbs. injectors with 17.2 lb injectors and an ecu tune. they managed to push out 38hp and 40ft/lbs.
I don't feel like pulling my stock injectors yet, and feel a cheap solution would be increasing fuel pressure with a regulator and add their ecu tune.
any info out there?
