You're talking about the connections that's underneath the blue fmu body?
The part thats shaped like an "L" is the return line to the fuel tank. The connector that is above that on the cylindrical part and pointed at an angle is the fuel rail return.

I just don't understand people sometimes. Installing a supercharger on your car is such a serious task and people ask questions like this. Are you just winging everything or are you actually reading instructions? If you are winging it, you have no business installing an SC on your car and you certainly have no business asking the .org to spoon feed you. If you are reading instructions, it doesn't get much more clear. Page 9/14 of Stillen's instructions, Photo #12: "To fuel rail return". "Return back to fuel tank".

I know. I hear you. I guess I just take it a little personally because I spent 40 hours putting together a how-to to help people out. But, with my manual aside, this is a question answered right out of the Stillen instructions themselves. I'm all for the .org helping others out but I also think there is a reasonable minimum expectation for people to help themselves too. And I don't think that I am being unreasonable in thinking that anyone installing a Stillen SC should be expected to read the installation instructions. Anyway, I'll stop blabbing now.
