Your fuel pressure regulator is in the rear of the car, near the rear passenger side tire. There is a short (6-8") return line from that to the tank cover / fuel pump access cover. Take the blue FMU, and run the return line off the regulator to the SIDE barb fitting. Run the remainder of the line from the BOTTOM barb fitting back to the return inlet on the fuel pump access cover. The smaller TOP nipple takes a vacuum line. Run one from the front of the car back to that nipple. Shoehorn the regulator up and out of the way with zipties or a large hoseclamp.
It's a tight area to work in, but i've installed 3 FMus in that location, and it does work. Not ideal, but it gets the job done fine for 5-7psi of boost.

install just like he says, zipties work well. as for the vacuum line, you need to get a lot of vaccum hose...i think about 7ft would make it fine...and buy a plastic "T" vaccum. hook it up to any vacuum source from the back of the intake manifold and follow the line all the way back, i slid mine under where the fuel lines go which makes it safer.
