Default -AN fittings made of gold??

Jesus for what they sell for, they should be!! I about had a stroke when I went to buy the fittings. I thought the pump and filter were expensive, till now. $220.00 just for the damned fittings ALONE Thats not including the steel braided hose nor the aluminum fuel line. I totally revamped my fuel system using the aeromotive external fuel pump, aeromotive fuel filter, and fuel pressure regulator. Talk about a major pain in the ******* rerunning and bending fuel lines. I had to loosen the front suspension bracket to run the new fuel lines. My fuel system now consist of 1/2" feeder and 3/8" return, STR fuel rail, rc 850cc injectors. Now that everything is done (fuel system wize) it looks sweeeet. Needless to say, I seriously doubt I will have to upgrade that part, nor will I be running out of fuel anytime soon! Damn I think this sport is more expensive than a drug habbit. Has to be I swear. Fuel system alone was aprox $1100 just for Parts.. thank God I do my own work. Enough of my bitchin..
I am almost done running all the wire for the Speed Pro. Should be on by the end of this week.

Hell yeah, with big injectors and low fuel presures it's all about hose barbs and clamps.

the AN fittings are not that badly priced come on guys you must be using the wrong suppliers. ANplubing.com and bakesprecision.com both have the best prices on the AN fittings. Cost approx 100 bucks for a complete -10 fuel setup. its not that bad.

my accords engine bay is super tight with the h22a and turbo.
