Maybe someone can use some of these to help if they ever do the install. The installation instructions are not good at all!

Looks great! One word of caution: Be very careful of the Vortech connections into the OEM fuel line. I installed mine and I 10x checked the connection and it ended up coming apart after about 5 months or so. I cannot over-state the possible fire risk that this can be. There were a few others that had this same problem and theirs were professional installed. Good luck, enjoy and keep an eye on that fuel pressure gauge...

Did the actual line disconnect from the OEM, or did the rubber hose come off the connection? What can I do to try to avoid the fuel line coming undone? So far for all the T fiitting I used the screw clamps, not the crimp ones that come with the kit.
