Hi mate,
Remove gt regulator.
The feed goes direct to fuel rail on drivers side,
The return goes from the regulator on passenger side of rail.
Hope that helps
Andy.

also you need to use a more powerfull fuel pump as the gtt one wont cut it. im using one for a mk1 golf but you can use rs turbo and old bmw fuel pumps and these will fit into the fuel pump bracket.

the gtt one should be fine for up to 15psi, depending on condition. always worth checking with afr gauges when tuning

either extend or replace the fuel lines that feeds and returns from the original fuel pressure reg, the volvo engine has the reg on the end of the fuel rail

if it is the uprated one for the gtt that should be fine.
