someone told me to look into getting an adjustable fuel pressure regulator... what do they do? I know they let you dial in a specific fuel pressure... does it increase ET's/horsepower or anything?

You may have missed the part where he says, "The computer is quite smart, it adjust the duration of the injector pulse to compensate for the lack of pressure". In other words the end result is the power you gain is only temporary. However, the longer pulse width gives the computer better control over the fuel ratio. Figure out where your a/f ratio is.(mine runs around 12.5/1) If you can lean it out permanently with a tune, then the power gains will be consistant.
