Other than (the obvious) demon tweeks, does anyone know where I can get braided fuel hose OFF THE REEL, so not pre cut or terminated lengths.

got to www.raldes.co.uk

Either that or you can try the manufacurers. I-core etc.

You could also do a search for industrial braided hose, we use it at work and its suitable for petrol etc, but its much cheaper from an industry supplier rather than raldes etc.

just going to go with quality hose clips, similar to the subaru OE ones.

need all the money I can get, so not spending on mega fuel system just yet. MASSIVE filter purchased at weekend may double as surge tank for engine bay mounted pump (filter holds about 3/4 litre, enough for 15 seconds or so on full power).

Am I joking? Dunno yet.

I prefer the idea of a little protection. Going the fully braided route with AN connections is only expensive because of the fittings.

I can buy 50m of 8mm hose for something like £40
