Anybody know proper routing of fuel pressure regulator?

Last weekend I re-routed my crappy Napa fuel pressure regulator but havent driven it since to find out if it resolved any of my fuel problems. What I did was routed it so that the fuel comes in, goes to a "T". One side goes straight to the Weber carb and the other goes into the regulator then the fuel return. Is this right?
My friend who originally put the regulator on had it so the incoming line went to the "T", one side then went to the regulator then the carb while the other went straight to the fuel return. I figured this could be the source of my problems since fuel wants to take the path of least resistance after that T so most would go straight back through the fuel return instead of into the carb. Did I re-route this properly?
thanks

Well, I guess I should have driven it earlier. It runs better than ever now! I just need to adjust the float to eliminate the backfire but other than that it is great! I think I have a renewed interest in the REPU and will start putting some work into it again.

Now to make it my autocross vehicle...
