Fuel return line......the one connected to the regulator on your fuel rail.

What do your plugs look like? have you tried to see what the fuel pressure is?

what ecu are u using? i believe the pwo requires 2 o2 sensors... also need to make sure that the ecu doesnt have one of those "ebay special" chips that leave the ecu running in open loop, what injectors do u have, ect? have u checked timing?

i am running a pw0 and im sure its in time i could be wrong but i have had a few people look at the marks and it looks in time. the injecters i think are just stock in jecters and the ecu hasn't been chiped i looked to try to chip it last week and found out that i had to cut and soder things and im not good at that so i wouldn't try it. the plugs were changed last week and how do you check the fuel pressure with out the fp regulator and i believe that evrything is stock on the motor the only thing i put on was a stage 2 clutch
