From what I've seen you can't.

I am going to order a fuellabs regulator in a few days. I just want to use the stock one to get me going until then. We'll see if i can make it work.

Update: Made the stock fpr work for now. I just got too shim it and it should be dandy. Ordering an adjustable unit in a few days. But at least the truck runs.

I did and it works great! But, if you are going to order one, I would hold off and do it one time. The mods for the factory FPR takes about an hour to do, gutting/grinding/and getting the right brass part (see "Tightwad mod" on this post or other forums, where I got the idea from)!!!!! I have 65 psi at idle and WOT. It only cost me my time and made my initial expense a little cheaper. If it ever has a problem, I will swap out with an adjustable one.
