103758, FMU Q Posted by 2GeclipseRS, Jun-06-08 03:01 PM
Yes, i used the search. The fmu install schematic dealie is written down in my notebook already. (Always keep a notebook)
I know the vac source is on top where it says vortech and the bottom two are for the fuel.
Does it matter which fuel fitting goes where on the return line?
Thanks.
Sorry i've been blowing up the board lately. I wouldn't be here if i could do it completely by myself.

The lower-most, center hole is the output/return, and the input/feed is the one more on the side.

Is that also true on the SFMU? I used to have (well still currently do) a regular 12:1 FMU which had it's return port labeled "out." But now with my new SFMU that I plan to install this weekend there is no label. Is the input side from the rail on the side, and the return to the tank out the bottom of the SFMU as well?

So now after reading that, i'm thinking i bought too much fmu. We'll see if i blow my stock return line (which i'm splicing into instead of going ss for right now).
I could always buy the bleed valve and then borrow a wideband if it came down to it.

Ok guys, i need a favor.
I'm putting the turbo stuff on this week (right now actually).
I'm under the car trying to figure out where to tap my fmu into. I can't find a solid diagram.
Can someone take a pic of the fpr to tank line?
Oh, i'm also documenting my install so any questions i've had with my custom setup can help someone else out down the line. Camera in hand! lol.
Thanks.

What year is your car?

104034, RE: FMU Q Posted by 2GeclipseRS, Aug-04-08 09:55 AM
98.
The shit is in the backski.
I'm leaving the fmu back there using a rubber vac line.
The easy way...lol.

Why would my car explode from putting it in the back?
Did you just assume i was substituting fuel hose with vaccum line?
That's retarded to even think that. Vac line goes from the top port, under the car to my manifold. I've got some hard plastic line i'm going to run instead using compression fittings as soon as i go to the store to get said fittings. For now, rubber will work.
I'm more likely to blow it up trying to go through the mess of a fuel system back there instead of someone showing me a picture of what line to tap into. It takes 10 minutes tops to run out to your car and snap a picture.....
Need the info asap (again, i searched and got dead links to what would have been the ticket to help). I have my turbo mounted and my oil lines ran. I'd rather not drive my car with an intake AND a hair dryer.
Thanks.

just get under the rear of the car look up just past the fuel filter and you will see the fpr hiding up top take the hose thas held on by a clamp off the fpr and hook it to the bottom most hole of the fmu than get some hose the same size and connect it to the side hole of the fmu and connect the other end back where you took the first hose off at. secure the fmu and run your vac line straight down towards the front of the car with all the other hard lines that are already running that way tap it into the intake mani and your done
