up by the driver side front strut tower. you'll see the two very small black fuel dampers connecting rubber fuel hoses on a bracket. the fuel regulator is right there in a natural finish.

nooooo. boost controllers on stock sti without proper tuning is BAD. you need to be able to control afr's before you can mess with boost. if your going about this in the correct manor then what bruce said should be fine.

NEVER I MEAN NEVER TAP FPR LINE FOR ANYTHING.
You do NOT want any leaks in the FPR vacume line. Putting a tee in that line increases having a leak 100%.
Use the BPV line or the UFO thing at the front pasenger side of the intake.
