Finally did my return line yesterday. Thanks to all in this thread for the help and pictures. Hardest part was dealing with the gas and trying to get 1/4” fuel injection line over the regulator and elbow.

Should of used 5/16 lol, even the 5/16 is tight on the regulator……you must of had a good time sliding that on.Finally did my return line yesterday.

Silicone spray for me! Still not easy though. Bent needle nose pliers was answer.

Is the original hose 1/4 or 5/16"?Should of used 5/16 lol, even the 5/16 is tight on the regulator……you must of had a good time sliding that on.
Is it tough to get at the regulator to install the longer section of hose? I want to do this before I start the season but I haven't even looked at my sled yet this year.

I believe the stock short hose to be 1/4. And it’s not that hard to get at the regulator. Hardest part is getting new hose on. But obviously you don’t want this hose coming loose. Just make sure to buy some good quality hose. I know it’s only a return line but you don’t want cheap stuff that deteriorates over time.

There will probably be at least 2-3 guys in our group of 5 with tuned sleds that will do this mod.

If you guys are putting bigger pumps in or are running bigger pumps you should really consider running the pump directly off battery. I have no affiliation with this eBay guy but this link is what I’m referring to. You can certainly make your own. I ordered from this guy and it takes awhile to get this. They are made to order.Thanks.

I use a Bosch 30A mini fuel pump relay encased in a waterproof shrink. There is also an inline fuse to the pump from the battery. It may be receiving 13.5v one minute then the next minute barely receiving 12v.

I got this from member DMC. THIS issue was talked about a few years ago by a electrician.

This allows you to always have full voltage at the pump. Issues arise with fluctuating voltage Under high boost from research I have done.If you guys are putting bigger pumps in or are running bigger pumps you should really consider running the pump directly off battery.

Never measured it . turbo dynamics regulator kit includes 5/16 hose and the precision fuel kit has 5/16 hose. I used 5/16 hose and it fits nice and snug. Can be removed without much struggle if you need to dissasemble. Bigger the better. I have a fuel pressure tester with yamaha fittings to test pressure at the fuel rail. I lightly pressed on the 5/16 hose just barely squishing the hose and fuel pressure jumped up to 80psi. Any tight bends or pressure slightly compressing a smaller hose could result in excess fuel pressure. Just something to keep in mind, no big cost difference using larger hose.Is the original hose 1/4 or 5/16"?

Not hard to get at regulator.

FYI - Same price (and same free shipping) over at their site Boost Kinetics (https://boostkinetics.com/shop/ols/...0-998t-external-fuel-pump-harness-relay-turbo). Ordered mine yesterday.This allows you to always have full voltage at the pump. Issues arise with fluctuating voltage Under high boost from research I have done.

Any seat time with this setup? wondering if theres any problems with the relay freezing like some have had with the stock relays. ThanksThis allows you to always have full voltage at the pump. Issues arise with fluctuating voltage Under high boost from research I have done.
