Yes, and I have wondered about that. The vacuum line from the FPR to the intake manifold indexes pressure to the vacuum? That would keep effective fuel pressure in the injector rail within a narrower range than without the vacuum line, no?

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
