Everybody thinks the bearings burn't up, don't quote me but he just installed it during RRE and went out to the track with us and something went wrong. JD will pop in soon, really felt bad for him...

he's saying there are millions on welfare and count on those who work to support them. in a sense he is paying for their lights to stay on since his taxes are paying for the assistance to the people on welfare...........

It would probably be a little easier to install with the turbo out (and of course if you already are going to have it out anyway you might as well install it), but since you are just getting to that driver's side rear port, it shouldn't be too bad. If you were installing a full regulated return, I wouldn't even attempt it without removing the turbo. JMO.
if you guys have ever installed a full RR the turbo removal is going to be one of the easiest parts of it. i dont see a possible way to install one with the turbo still in. i totally agree with you..............

Does the FRx affect the gas mileage?

In our trucks, no. One reason is because we don't use gas. The other is that it was designed to get rid of the dead head at the number 8 injector. It only help equalizes the fuel pressure and lets the fuel flow through the whole rail. A kind of poor man's return system. Quieter and more efficient maybe, but doubtful on the increased economy.

Maybe I missed it, but is the FPx a direct replacement for the CCK, or does it have the orifice based return line like the other is now offering?

The Fuel Rail X-over is our version of the return system, but it utilizes a design that allows for easier installation without the need for cutting.

Fuel mileage. Sorry, I know I shouldn't use generic terms. I was tired.

I haven't heard anyone claiming milage increases. However.. I hear clay has a regulated return system in the works and some have claimed 2mpg gains.

Since I'm using Keith's thread here as a visual (Thanks), I got my FRx from Clay a couple days ago and will be installing soon. A quick question, those stock fuel plugs at the ends, any special tools for them? They are male square head plug(hope thats right). I know to Pb them but can they be extracted with a good bite of some pliers?

The square head on the plugs takes a 9/32" open end wrench, but a small Crescent (adjustable) wrench will also work. The plugs may a bit too tight for pliers and try to round off.
