wondering if anyone can help me out.....i purchased a turbo setup for my 01 ex however it came with no fmu..... i purchased a Blox fmu, however as you already know there is no return line in the system to hook it up to...talked to a couple of shops and they said that i have to put in a "T" and hook it up to another return line.......???? not quite sure what they meant...just wondering if anyone can help..either with a web site...or more info..thanks

basically, you just install an inline fuel pump as you would on a return line car. You then add a Brass T before and after the pump. You then run a line from the T After the pump, into an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. Then out of the Regulator into the FMU. Then out of that into the check valve. Then out of the valve into the T before the pump.

There you have it. a DIY SF fuel system.

Looks a lot harder when its all compacted into that little unit, huh?

If somebody wants to drive out here with all the parts, i will do all the routing and what not. Basically you will just have to do the electrical. Then i can write a DIY on it.

so u can up the fuel on an sf fmu with a fuel pressure regulator? I didnt know the sf fmu could be adjusted for more fuel at higher boost, is this possible?

 
Rep Power: 285

nope. The pressure regulator is just to set the base pressure.

Without the pressure regulator, it would take ~5 psi of boost before the kit gave you any fuel.

so in order to run a fmu and inline pump you would need a fuel pressure regulator? or no. if not how would u install a fmu and inline with out a reg or not thats not possible.

look at the picture. that is how you have to do it. There is no other way (other than coverting to a return style fuel system).

oka if i get a fuel pressure reg. what pressure should it be set at and what kind of reg like name brand wise? any kind of reg would be oka?

What does the fpr need to be set too?

 
Rep Power: 285

needs to be between 45-50 psi

If a boost referencing fuel pressure regulator is used in this scenario, will the fmu still be necessary?

 
Rep Power: 413

yes. FP won't rise enough to make an impact to your fuel delivery.

Hey thanks for the answer. That makes sense. I appreciate your help.

so is it needed to have a INLINE FUEL PUMP not just an FMU? And another thing where can I find the adapter hardware to tap these fule lines into the FMU?
