Post stock fuel pressure...adjustable??

Is there a way to adjust the fuel pressure on my 88GT or do I need to buy a FPR?
ALso, what does it mean when the engine stalls or wants to stall when I make a sharp left corner when the my fuel level is low?
I thought it was bad gas or fuel pump at one time but I notice it does this every time my fuel level is 1/4 tank or less.
I'm thinking maybe it's because the fuel pump becomes uncovered and starved for fuel until the car is level again.
Any ideas?

The stock FPR isn't adjustable. To adjust it you need to get a new one. Also what you discribed about the stalling sounds like you answered the question your self.

Yeah, but is that supposed to be normal?
I never heard anyone else with an electric fuel pump complain about that problem.
