Default Return To Returnless fuel sys.

Who all has coverted from returnless fuel system to a return system? I am thinking about doing it. Trying to figure out what Ill need. If I get a set of 03 fuel rails and a return line what will that leave? What will I have to do as far as fuel pumps go? Got a 255lph intank now.

I know now it moves the FP reg to the rail, instead of the tank..

Lower idle pressure ( Easier to control big injectors) Higher pressure when under boost ( More fuel out of same injectors)

I went the other way...and have the rails w/reg if you want them.

I think thats it, the rails, w reg, the return line to the tank. PCM needs different values in some table bc the pressure changes, where with out the return its constant.

The tuning changes are no big deal, I can take care of that easily. Just got to figure out how I want to do the fuel setup. I am thinking that I should run dual intanks.
