Single Turbo Rat's Nest?

Well I am about to start on my single turbo and motor installation this month and would like to see if anyone has any pics of there former Rat's Nest area after the single conversion. I am running the PFC with a BNR ported motor and a T78, I am mainly curious about fuel lines and such since the rat's nest will be completely out of my car so I need to see what anyone did to run the fuel lines longer or any misc. lines that used to use the rat nest to get across the top of the motor. Possibly a shot of your setup with the UIM off the motor so I can see below. Thanks, Scott

Well, your running haltech, and hes got power fc. So he will at least need to keep the fpr solenoid... And i assume you run pre-mix, so he can keep his oil squirters and you ditched yours. We have a fd at the shop with T66 and PFC, no rats nest... Ill take some pics today, the intake is on, but you can see in there pretty well.

You dont really need the FPR solenoid, you can run the FPR straight to the uim for pressure. Also, you can keep the oil meetering pump or toss it and run pre mix, which ever you want to do.

As for the fuel lines, you can remove the entire rack but still leave the part for the fuel lines. The hard lines just have a small braket that is screwed to the rack, you can just unscrew it so that you still keep the 3 hard lines for the fuel. Thats what i did. you can even see them at all.

I can't wait to get this thing running again. Anyone have any pics? Thanks for the advice on the fuel system. Now would my SX FPR make this setup any different? I do run Pettit Premix in my car but I will still leave the OMP just in case I run out or forget to put some in.
