Pressure regulator on the T1 is behind the Fuel filter towards the TB, look for a vacuum pod, with air line to the top and metal/rubber fuel line to the bottom. Spend some time reading the manuals, the fuel reg is covered in the T1 manual here: <http://www.cityturbo.com/manuals/24_60PD100/11/46.html...

You should be able to get a cleanout, which will set you back at around the $100 mark, the advantage of a cleanout is they can often ...

If you're not getting boost, then it is likely that there is something wrong with the turbo, either wastegate jammed open, seized or otherwise damaged. Check the wastegate actuator, and also put a second boost gauge on, in case it is your gauge that is faulty (the factory bar thing has a habit of cr...

Front brakes sticking can be a number of things, particularly with discs, they were likely only just touching, so it could be as simple as new fluid, and full bleed. The next step after that is calipers, but likely to be crapped out brake fluid with garbage in it blocking the return, as if they were...

The f10a rings can be fitted to ER pistons, after comp grooves are machined out to 1.5mm (from 1.2) This costs about $100 the rings themselves are around $80 a set.
