I've got myself a turbo regulator for my SPI tank and pump, i've bought it so i can get my car running again in the short term with a nat asp engine whilst i save up for my turbo build. However im a bit unsure what i need to connect up to the regulator. 3 of 4 connections are obvious, the feed and return to the tank already have all the plumbing in place. The carb feed is similarly sorted, but im unsure about the 'boost' lug, what does that need to be connected up to? Someone suggested since im running it for a nat aspirated car for now that i need to vent it to air? Is that right and do i need to change it when i turbo it *blush*

The regulator is one of the jobs from minispares like thus:

I've seen the future and tbh its Pie

you should just be able to leave it if you are running na as it is pressure from the plenum that goes into the fuel regulator to let more fuel in so in essence just leave it or maybe just block it off with a bit of fuel hose and a nut in the end to stop dirt geting in there

leave it vented to air while running NA then it just needs connecting up to the plenum when running turbo *smiley*
