Depends on your flavor.
That's what I've gleened from the various posts/threads I've read through. My initial thought was to go unregulated, then I think about how I'll be learning this rig, in off-road situations, it might be smart to keep it and just play with the screw until I get to know how it performs.

Thanks for breaking it down...
