This fuel return setup confuses me...why not just run the 1300's and not have to worry about doing a fuel return setup. :think: anybody got a link to the 1300's
you want a constant flow of fuel without having the fuel rail to dry up and have pockets of air going through the injectors.

I was talking to Jay (Mucter) and said that any FI civic that's close to the 400hp range and up would benefit a fuel return setup.

Look at Matt (OBX4Life) set up with 1000cc injectors at 52% IDC (from what he tells me) at 12-14psi on a turbo.
All of what Fidel said. The fuel return compensates for boost and keeps your fuel pressure stable by bleeding off what it needs to.

And yes. I can re-check my logs but IIRC my highest injector duty cycle has been 53% @8k - 12psi

I was actually curious exactly what it was, so took a screenie of my last log.
55% @ 7800

Matt are you done with tuning the car?
Nah.. still hovering around 12psi. Vit may have upped the boost but I've taken a break from logging to get the car ready for its first show this weekend. It gets sketchy logging in 4th gear so I'm really taking my time with it.

still good tho man above 400hp and only on 12psi :giggle:

what show are you going to?
CP-Tuning. It's a big charity event in the Mid-Atl they have every year. Our local 8thcivic chapter raised like $300 to donate.

I'm jelly. I heard stagecoach is a ton of fun.

So things are looking good for my San Dizzle trip. Going to be there at least Tuesday-Friday!

Do that damn fuel return damn it!
:yeahthat: Mucter laid everything out that you need in the article! It's really not hard you just have to source all the fittings. Running the return line to the tank is easy peasy.

Also Vit stocks the FPR blanks now so you don't have to order them from ******* England.

The 1300's @ dw are really bad.

FPR blanks will be in stock next weekish.
Oh :word: for some reason I thought you already got them in.

i still has dibs on one? what will they go for? can you tell us yet?
I think I told him to order one for me and then I ended up getting Mucter's actual return so I don't need one. He should have an extra :badger:

So with the NNFR you don't need the blank :think:
You do.

im guessing mucters nnfr already had one
:yeahthat:


yes, you need the blank. didn't it say that in the install?

Sent from my $3.08 AutoGuide.com App
Yes, but :beer: is clouding my thoughts, and I thought obx was running the nnfr and didn't need it. Didn't mucter come up with the nnfr?
Keep in mind I bought Mucter's original fuel return.. the exact one he built and pictured in his article. It came with the FPR blank so I no longer needed one from Vit. When I first planned to do Mucter's return he had no plans of parting out his car so I was beginning to source parts and told Vit to order me a blank with his first batch that he stocks.

we should get together and have a NNFR install meet :giggle:
:giggle: I can certainly help out if anyone has the parts ready next month while I'm there! It's pretty straight forward after you get the AN fittings put together.
