I've been really contemplating about selling my crazy steve for that one instead. But I guess since I figured I'm so close to my build, I will just jerry rig the CS one. It seems to be the same core and end tanks as the TR08 from Treadstone, only with elbows welded to the inlet and outlet.

just out of curiosity, did you have to drop the fuel tank to install your RSFS?

yes, you need to remove the factory pressure regulator. dropping the tank isn't hard. don't worry about it too much

I'm not worried about it. The only thing bothering me about it is that my tank is 3/4 full.

be prepared for the unexpected. it would be smart for someone to have a tap/dye set as well. i had to use it like 3 times during my build

so 2007 fuel pump canisters were under recall. like an idiot i never took it in. now that the ott return style was installed one of the fuel lines broke and the car is sitting with a broken fuel canister. luckily for me ryan@zzp had one laying around that he was able to sell to me. great people to work with at zzp and she'll be back on the road soon

Hey, I forgot to take a pic of the wg's gasket when we popped it open. But it's no big deal. It really was just pinched, so we were able to fix it!

like 20 are about my wheels/what wheels they want, what offset they should run. 10 are how i like my turbo kit. 10 are about where they can find powell tow hooks. and 10 about a bunch of random stuff. it fluctuates but i clear my messages almost every month. i don't mind answering the stuff so it's no big deal
