Then you also need to reduce pump pressure to 1000 psi max. The fitting just reduces flow.

Is there a part I need also to change in order to reduce the pressure,if so what do I need to change and where to get it from?

You need a PS pressure tester plus a a Borgeson shim kit, or send the pump out to be set up. I don't see any way you can guess at it. If you have a DSE rack, it can handle 1400 psi, but Mustang racks use 950-975 & I think 1000 or 1100 is max.

A local mechanic may have the needed gage kit & be able to set it for you.
