Default fuel return line setup.

are there any how to's for doing this? I want to put in a boost referenced fuel pressure regulator and a return line to the fuel tank. I am told our cars do not have a true return line which is needed to maintain proper fuel pressure. my car is a 2001 if it makes any difference. I am losing fuel pressure on accelleration. Thanks, ~Guy

I can set you up with a kit to do just that. What pump are you running now?

make sure you have the right hose on the pump (rated for the pressure) and that you have good tight clamps on it. while you are in the tank you can replace the stock regulator for a few bucks.

depending on how much you are losing you can tune for it.

i dunno about an entire fuel system unless you plan on upping the hp significantly down the road (meaning switching turbo kits/built engine etc)
