This guy got his car to start today! I have a fuel leak between the primary and secondary rail. I tried tightening it down to no avail. I'm gonna have to pull the rails and it may be my excuse to upgrade. She idles pretty good with no tune after warming up. Pig rich while cold though.

Fixed the fuel leak! I had some spare injector orings and after a lot of swearing and cuts I was able to get the hose off the primaries that comes from the secondary rail, replace the o-ring, swear and cut my hands a lot more and get it back on. Next issue is I seem to be an idiot and didn't install my radiator fans. After that, I have to figure out some IC piping and wire up two mac solenoids to replace my brand new and already broken OEM Turbo control solenoids.

I've got no crank signal, everything is wired correctly. Gonna swap x4's between cars, or I have a bad ecu.... Gonna check out a few settings tonight to see what's up. Also found out that I have to do an oil feed mod due to some work done internally in the engine... Ordered parts... Now waiting

I'll hit you up if I don't get the one I order, it's not a deal breaker. I have a 90deg on the line now, it works with the stock secondary perfectly but not so well with the FFE rail, I'm just OCD so I don't like bending lines if I can make it work with a proper angled fitting. The key player (EV14 2000s) are still in the mail, so I have to wait either way lol.
