As I get closer and closer to turboing I have a few quick questions about lines...
OK, I am doing the return fuel system with Aeromotive FPR, and using a Golden Eagle Vacuum Manifold, 200MM Tial WS, Greddy Type S BOV, and Greddy Profec E-01...
Ok, from my unerstanding I need two fuel lines...one from the FPR to the filter and another from the pump to the filter...what sizes should these be? Also, how long should they be..?
And what size vacuum lines do I need? I get a lot of different answers to all these questions so someone please set me straight...thanks!

what i would recommend to you, is to upgrade your in-tank fuel pump from a stock pump to a walbro 255...i just picked one up for a 99-00 civic...plugged right up, but since the pump is bigger around, you will have to do a little trimming to the fuel pump carriage. not much, just a little...there is no need to upgrade the fuel lines running from the tank to the enginebay. after you recieve your modde fuel rail, what you will want to do is run a 6AN line from the modded side, to your fuel pressure regulator, and then run a line from your FPR back to your fuel tank...hit me up if you have anymore ?s man, you know that i have converted to a return style, and i did it myself...
well here is my point of view...
im not sure if its the same for the 7th gen civics, but my 4th gen's only limiting factor is fuel pump, injectors.... everything else on the car can hold well up to 400hp...(fuel wise)
replacing such things as lines and fuel rail is pointless...
and even a fuel regulator is goofy... you need to tune the car with bigger injectors. a fuel regulator is not needed and quite dangerous. if tuned correctly, yor car will htink its stock. opening up actually less time than it did stock because it has larger injectors..so raising the fuel pressure is kind of out of the way...
im not familiar with that ecu setup, but recommend uberdata.... its cheaper and better and faster to use than hondata...
if your in the area, my buddy can change it to odb1 and tune your stuff for you...
just dont tell him your going to use a fuel regulator....
