    FPR ref pipe

    Is it ok to plumb the fpr ref pipe in to the actuator-carb line?

    Im thinking it will be ok but would like a trusted member to confirm it

    Not wise, as if the pipe splits you'll have a double whammy of the turbo over-boosting with the fuel pressure drastically reduced.

    anywhere else i could latch on to martski?

    my carb top has no port's as it's a custom job,i did have it going to the turbo,but i've just replaced it with another unit that does'nt have a union on it,obviously i could fit one but it'd be easier if i could just connect it elsewhere.

    it has to be before the carb, otherwise you won't get enough fuel pressure. Best get your custom elbow customised.
