fuel fittings

On the drivers side head, rear, high pressure fuel fitting {90*} I would like to change , to something different after I remove the turbo. I want to do this so if I ever want to change the compressor wheel I won,t have to pull the turbo again .Does anyone have knowledge of what I might need so I can remove the compressor wheel cover easily. I would like a description & any part #,s. I tired the search method but no luck. Thanks for any help . Friskyjake

You would have to completely replace the fuel lines which would be difficult because of the way they connect directly to the back of the fuel pump with a banjo bolt. Now connection at the fuel pump is a 1-1/16"-12 SAE ORB fitting, so I suppose you could get and adapter and tee fitting to go from that to AN (or whatever you prefer), to some AN hoses, to an AN fitting in the head (which you would have to remove to pull the housing).

I don't see this making it any easier. Just pull the turbo or look up the freakify mod to make pulling the turbo easier.

Or stop messing with stock junk and upgrade to a t,4 kit.
Wheels and housings are just Band-Aids on bullet wounds. And do efuel and get rid of that stock headache.
