Got all my fuel line fittings ordered last night, should see those on Wednesday, also made a change of plans on the turbo, picked up at GT 42 modified with a 80mm comp wheel, tracking says it should be here Friday!
This is the actual turbo:

Well got the turbo yesterday, not real happy with it, looks like comp wheel has been rubbing on the comp housing. Sent it out this morning to Forced Iductions for a check up/rebuild, see what they say. Also sent the Converter in to Yank for a cut/clean and a possible re-stall to a 3200 or a 3400? Dave is gonna look at my logs and see what he thinks, was hearing from some people that i was blowing through it?
