Exclamation installing turbo need help!

i've looked on the forum but can't find my answers.
1. fuel lines-i'm hooking up the SF FMU and don't know which line is my in and out lines on the car. i know the in line is the line comming from the firewall but is it the larger one or the smaller one or is there a pic?

2. so that I don't burn the pump up with it on all the time civic01vtech said I need a low pressure sensor installed on the charge pipe near the TB. but where can I get the sensor at?

3. I just want to make sure when I do hook up the FMU do I split the "in" line in half and the part comming from the firewall goes in the "in" part of the FMU and the part going to the block hooks in to the "out" part of the FMU and then I don't touch the out/return line????

Thanks a lot guys I know they are dumb questions but I need them answered.

it is the bigger one

cut it in half and the piece coming from the firewall goes to the "in" and the "out" goes to the fuel rail. You are gonna have to get some extra fuel line too.

almost forgot can I put this FMU on the car without the turbo being on it yet. it will be about a week until it's on and i'm trying to put on as much piece by piece that I can.
