So I have one of those HUGE bdl filters that I got from ipg and a bdl fpr. Because of the fixed location of my vacuum box which is directly behind my Victor x manifold, there is really no other places to mount these two items. And to the far left where the prop. valve is, my catch can is stuffed there as well which realistically leave me absolutely NO space to mount these items anywhere on my firewall without having to buy absurdly stupid amounts of braided line and tuck it through the frame rail for a tucked look. which I HAVE considered. but I do not really want to invest double what I would have initially spent on line already.
I am now faced with these options:
1: mount the fpr directly to the fuel rail, and find somewhere to mount the filter and run line to the filter to the fpr.
2: remove the tubing from the engine bay side of the firewall chop it back a little bit, add the flare nut back on, reflare and attach the filter and put a connecting fitting on the firewall and run the line to the fpr attached to the rail.
3: repeat option 2 but instead of mounting the fpr to the rail, run a 90 from the firewall fitting and run a little bit of braided line to the fpr mounted to the most logical open area on the firewall with a 90 going in and a 90 going out to a straight fitting to the rail.
What do you guys think? The chassis is an ef hatch with a turbo b series in it.
Any other suggestions could be helpful as well

FPR before the fuelrail? ....are we talking a 'return-less' fuel system?
--To best of knowledge, the regulator is after the fuel rail on all Honda fuel systems with a return line.
