    Other possibilities:

    Are you using a stock fuel pressure regulator? They kind of really don't work right at all for + atmosphere.

    Stock internals of the M42s wont take to boost to well either could be detonation.

        I've been running my 3bar bosch stock fpr for 2.25 years through Vortech FPR's, 16 psi of boost, and all sorts of abuse, and it still works fine....
