Is there anything wrong with mounting the boost referenced FPR before the fuel rails rather than after the fuel has gone through them? Also is it neccessary to have a return if shooting for 600rwhp and under?
I'm getting ready to install a turbo kit and want to go ahead and get it running ASAP. I will be using the Racetronix fuel pump and wiring kit along with a boost referenced FPR and 60lb Motrons. The rest of the setup is a T76 turbo on a T6 flange, Victor Jr manifold and rails, FAST 90 TB Blah, Blah, Blah. Do you think it's neccessary for a return line and what about FPR placement?

Installing it prior to the rails there is nothing holding it from droping like a rock back into the tank. There will be no way to keep the pressure. Always install the reg. after the rails.
