Anyone know how to tap a return fuel line???
 
Have no return fuel line on a 2001 civic, custom turbo, at 3 psi...nothing more...until we figure out how to get a return fuel line. Does anyone know where to tap the block/head at to get return fuel, and what else would have to be done??? Please help!!!

Isn't it a bitch when Honda Engineers f*** with us and make it difficult? If there is no return line, you'll have to do bigger injectors and standalone. Bummer huh? Or you could do a high pressure inline pump what comes on when you see boost, but I don't know how well that would work. It'll raise pressure a bit, but no significantly enough... I know, not much help... I think the new GTS Celica's don't have a return line either... XS Engineering just turboed one not long ago. Can't remember what they did.

I don't think the V-AFC works on 7G Civics...

I dont know what the 7th Gen civic tank looks like. But if it has the same type of fuel pump holder/gas tank cover you could do what I did for my return line. Heres some pics...

Maybe this will work for you. Ofcourse you should run a high pressure line going back, and use some type of FPR with a return line.
Good luck http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif

That's an awful lot of work to come up with an inherently bad turbo fuel system. VAFC or E-Manage will let you drive some 450cc injectors on the stock fuel pump and you'll be in great shape. You should be THANKING honda engineers for saving your ass from FMU hell.
