I have a few small updates with more to follow in the next couple days and weeks.
First: It's officially official. I have started collecting parts for a fuel system. I have the Aeromotive FPR and -8 PTFE braided line I will use. I need to get my hands on AN fittings and the fuel filter of my choice. While I am in there I am likely going to go with dual pumps as discussed above.
Second: I have a TPIS 102mm throttle body on the way as well. This I am going to wait to put on until the fuel system is completely dialed in and tuned for. I know it sounds silly, but I want to be able to share some real world data and gains. I hope it works well with my x-link... too many times do I hear of people having issues with this combo.
Finally: I have a second HX on the way with a larger coolant reservoir. I've had the tank built for a while and I figure while I am re doing the plumbing I will get it all taken care of and do it right the first time.
Pics of all these parts will follow over the next few days.

Poor quality. The fittings have a tendency to leak, and the threads can strip out rather easily if you aren't careful during assembly. If you call their service dept, they tell you to crank down on the fittings to get them to seal. This is improper and in itself can cause the aluminum fittings to leak.
Makes sense to me when you consider their fittings are half the price of aeroquip, brown & miller, etc. and on par with china junk
