fuel line hookup?

i forgot how the fuel line hookup for the sc install. i know there is a how-to from the sticky, but that was if you used the t-rex fuel pump. what if you will use the walbro fuel pump? how do you route the fuel line with just the vortech fmu? i just totally forgot how things goes. i remembered it was so easy before, i didn't even need to read the direction. please inform, thanks.



this is for a v2 sc install btw.

in tank Walbro===>Fuel Filter ===>Front Fuel Rail/Back Fuel Rail===> OEM FPR===>FMU===>Fuel Return Line.

The top fitting of the FMU is the 'in' port, while the bottom fitting is the 'out' port.


On a side note, don't forget there is always Ptatohed's SC writeup to rely on (found on vqpower.com); it will refresh your memory on a lot of things.

Incorrect. The hookup is the same. You just wouldn't touch the other fuel line. Read page 9 of 14 of Stillen's instructions and see for yourself.
