fuel system - DIY or ITP

Going to do some upgrades to my fuel system soon. I would like to have a return system for the fuel rails to get better flow to the #8.

Is is best to purchase the kit from ITP with the regulator or build my own system?

I will note that I have the skills to build the system. But I would like to know the advantages for each.

I will alos be doing the fuel tanks mods as well either before or after.

Many folks have complained that by the time they hunt down the correct parts and get the fuel line lenghts correct, that it's more of a hassle than purchasing a complete kit. But there are some who enjoy doing this sort of thing, so it's your call. Either way, it will accomplish the same thing. The kits from ITP, DI, VeggiStroke, and others are good quality products.

I got the ITP one, but without the filter. I'll add my own -- it was only like $45 that way. That put it worth every penny not to have to go track down all the tubing & adapter parts...
