I've been using one from cartech.net for a couple years
now. http://www.cartech.net/fuelaccessories.html
It was around $200, but I've heard from some Dodge turbo
guys that if your are, or know someone in the automotive
business (shop owner, manufacturer, re-seller, etc), that
they can get it for around $150.
They have several models, including a new, more expensive
billet model that looks quite a bit nicer.
They go into the fuel return line *after* the stock fuel
pressure regulator. They are adjustable in the onset, and
in their rising rate from 1:1 to 7:1 (or maybe 5:1, don't
remember).
The onset means you can start the fuel pressure boost at
around 2 or 3 inches of vacuum, or 1 or 2 psi of boost.
The rate sets how fast fuel pressure comes up relative to
boost once the onset point is reached.
Onset is adjusted by screwing in a stud. Rising rate is
adjusted with an adjustable bleed of the boost sense line.
Works very well.
