Couple quick questions. You know the hard line that runs from the rear of the car to the engine bay. Can you use what Aeroquip calls a -6 tube nut/tube sleeve, where you want the hard line, to turn into SS line? I'm assuming the hard line is 3/8" fuel line.

My second question is, what size of AN to pipe fitting should I use when tapping into the fuel rails? Like a -6 to 3/8?

Thanks for the input guys. I just want to do this once...not twice or three times. These SS lines can realy add up after a little while. CJ

Use -6AN to 1/4" NPT. You'll see that 3/8" NPT is too big. I would try the tube nut, but I've never seen how they go on, so I don't know if you need to flare the line or not

Those SS lines don't take a little while to add up, they add up right away!! I think I have 36 feet of -6 on my car. I should have used the 3 hard lines that run along the car.

How about the different regulators? I notice that Tyson is using the Aeromotive one. I'm thinking that its this one.

http://216.242.145.16/products/product.phtml?p=10

The cheapest I've found it was $157.

I've also noticed that alot of guys use the XS one. Cheapest I've found it was $143.55.

Anyone like to add anything else to this? CJ

So far I like th idea of the XS one because I can get it in black. So it kinda does'nt look so flashy...not that a single turbo setup will help that or anything CJ

They are all pretty much the same....SX, Aeromotive, and Saard. I like the Saard one a little better, but it's all personal preference.
