Just so you know, Russel makes bolt on AN fittings for the stock fuel rail quick connects.

Just search Russel specialty EFI fittings on google.

I wouldn't want any compression fittings on my fuel lines. Too risky if one lets go. The russel fitting actually is secured by a screw on to prevent it from popping off.

I have used those compression fittings that he has, they are the real deal. As for the fuel lines I would prefer the Russel setup but those fittings are a double lock and work great.

Yup, the passenger side actually uses the stock hose from the valve cover to the TB and for the drivers side I drilled out the hole in the PCV valve thing so its not tiny any more and ran 3/8 hose to the can. I'd think that should be plenty. I you wanted to you can run a hose from the top of the can to your supercharger inlet so you dont get a smell, I know turbo guys do that but I dont know about procharger guys
