What are you doing to regulate the pressure of the walbro? Did you ever find that "bypass valve" that they use?

FWIW- I'm using an Aeromotive bypass regulator. Cost around $119 from Jeg's/Summit. I can go from zero to 60psi. My Walbro custom setup cost me maybe $300 total not including all the filter stuff. In my mind, it's much better than what's out there from any vendor.

I running GDPs 2-micron kit in my ride and I'm happy with it. Install was easy and it seems to be working like it should. I run that and the old 10-micron Dodge filters. Change the Dodge unit with every oil change 7500 miles and the GDP unit every other oil change (15,000 miles for the math challenged).

No... that one is from 30psi up to 70psi.

It's the Universal bypass.

It doesn't do exactly the same as a bypass regulator. I set my pressure at 20 psi and it stays at 20psi no matter if I'm at idle or WOT. GDP's valve can't do that. It works for most applications, but doesn't hold consistent psi.

Just wondering who all is filtering down to 2 microns and how often you change your filters. Im about to do a walbro install and thinking of running 2 auxiliary fuel filters.... One would be 10 micron and the other 2 micron. By doing this, I wouldnt ever have to mess with the stock fuel filter and both remote filters are simple spin on filters.
