fuel pressure
i just read in the FAQ section that if you put an adjustable fuel pressure regulator on a 350 you'll get lots more torque from just changing the fuel pressure. would this help us V6ers at all?
Maybe... if you can find a way to get at the adjustment... I'm debating putting an AFPR on my V6 but I doubt whether it would help. Its more of a tuning aid then a power adder.

It's no miracle piece; your engine will have to be modded to the point where it needs extra fuel. I'd expect a mild gain, maybe 5 hp or 5 ft/lbs or torque... think of it as the same thing as putting a K&N on.
Now, if you have a cam and some intake/head porting, the AFPR would help a lot more. Like Drew said, you buy it to tune your combination in, that's all. Sort of like playing with ignition timing...
