It's for the 2nd gen SRT-4 Turbo install but might give you an idea...

RRFPR > stock fuel line for return > spoolboy-modified Walbro fuel pump.

You will also need a 1:1 regulator if you use a Cartech/Begi RRFPR, won't need one of you use a Chill Factory regulator. At least that all the non-Megasquirt 1st gen guys are doing it. Some people say you can't get your base fuel pressure low enough with the factory fuel line for return and that you should run -6, but the factory line has been proven sufficient for 200-250whp setups.

I doing a spoolboy modded Walbro pump with a stock line for return. The sppolboy mod basically bypasses the factory fuel press. regulator and the restictive inlet, and allows for the return line to dump back into the canister. You can only use the stock fuel line up to a certain amount of HP, one you get to a point where you need super big injectors the stock line is too restrictive to get the fuel back in the tank fast enough to get the base fuel pressure down where you need it. For around 200whp (what I am shooting for) the stock line for return is sufficient.

Did that make any sense at all? lol

so think thats better/cheaper than just going with megasquirt?

It's not better, or really that much cheaper, it's just less hassle. I would LOVE to go MS, but being a first timer it seemed complex enough without having to do a ton of wiring and mess with a laptop to tune with.

I do want to do a MS system in the future, just probably not on a Neon.
