You could check all the flexible lines for kinks. The only other thing I can think of is that it might be the fuel pump strainer in the fuel tank. Maybe? It's worth a look. Clark's Garage has the procedure written up.

If it were me, I'd also triple-check all the part numbers on the items I replaced.

Since your pressure regulator runs according to vacuum, you might want to check the vacuum level, too. Usually the problem with these cars is too little vacuum, though, making the mixture too rich, as I understand it. But you never know, and it's easy enough to check.

By the way, I've got the same running problems with my car, but I've ruled out fuel supply issues. If you fix the fuel pressure trouble and still have problems, check out the DME temp sensor. Someone else on the list found that it was causing these sorts of problems. I'm not sure how to test it on the "S," but it's a $30 part, so I'm just going to try replacing mine. Good luck.
