Default question regarding replacing stock fuel rails and regulator location

i was thinking of replacing my stock fuel rails.
after some research it appears that i can get new non-stock rails easy enough, but i would have to remote install a regulator?
i have an aftermarket regulator installed on my stock setup, which would be useless if i went with non stock rails?
am i understanding this correctly?

do they have kits for the remote regulator install, or is it a custom diy type of thing?

Yes. Let it soak and go to town with said brush. Mine are pretty much chrome like in appearance after I did the above and then buffed with a metal polish.
