    Vacuum fuel pressure regulator, connected to intake, will it work with boost ?

    So engine is m43b19 with 2.5tds turbo.
    Since stock without turbo creates vacuum in the intake manifold, and it is connected with line to vacuum fuel pressure regulator, now there is boost instead of vacuum in the intake manifold, it will not increase fuel pressure ?I have been stuck with this idea for quite long now.

    yes, it will increase fuel pressure,
    but the effective fuel pressure with which the injectors inject fuel into the engine
    will stay at a steady pressure, which is the reason it has a vacuum reference from the intake.
    Keep the reference line attached to your FPR.
