Interesting plumbing, are you sure connecting the fuel return lines into the camcover breather pipe is a good idea?

I also notice the weber FPR - any idea what sort of power these are good for? (I have one also).

I disagree, those are some of the clearest (from a what to do perspective) photo's I've seen.

I can't follow what you've done, looks to me like, (Underneath picture)

Fuel enters on left, through brass T piece into 2 pipes one to front of left rail, other to rear of right rail? Then exit from from front of right rail, through connector(is it a T piece?) to rear of left rail?

That would sort of make sense if the connector mentioned is a T piece and this would then go to FPR?

Only thing i would recommend is moving T pieces so that the pipe lengths to each rail are the same, these uneven lengths will effect pressure change response times from one side of the engine to the other.

Jon, I take it from the picture that your going to use the standard inlet hose routing i.e. not rotate the turbo for a better inlet path? And your not going to reverse the manifold either?

I noticed on MY93 WRX the passengers sides full rail is longer than the drivers. I take it i will need to take this into account when making parrallel fuel rails??? so that the hose lengths are equal to each rail.

Im trying to follow this too?

"Fuel enters on left, through brass T piece into 2 pipes one to front of left rail, other to rear of right rail? Then exit from from front of right rail, through connector(is it a T piece?) to rear of left rail?"

Is this correct? Going from the highlighted pictures

Fuel enters through T piece into two pipes : red hose (LH front ) & green (RH rear)

Fuel exits through T piece from red hose (RH front & LH rear)

What is the yellow hose for?
