Hi Gang!
I'm looking for as much information as I can find before beginning my ATS turbo kit install. I've read that the fuel return lines/caps need to be routed away from the rear to the front factory turbo configuration which crosses over from the passenger side to the drivers side in front of the intake manifold. It's also been made mention that some of the wiring needs to be moved so it doesn't get cooked. As much as I've looked into it, I can't find the details. Pictures, parts, part numbers? I'm doing my best to get it all together before I start. I don't have another vehicle to use while I'm doing the installation and even if I did, we're in a pretty rural area with out a lot of resources for parts. I'm hoping that I'll be able to get the truck back on the road in two days. Do you think that this is a reasonable estimate? My truck is a 90 F-250 Thanks for the help!

when i installed my 093 i put a dead end cap back by the turbo and put a T in the line that goes from the #1 injector cap to the filter and then ran a line off that T under the intake back to the T on the back of the engine

as far as the wiring, i rewired the whole deal and moved my glow plug relay to the pass side fender well and set the rest up to just go across the front of the engine with the glow plug wires running towards the back of the engine from the wires on the front of the engine, i wired it like that because i ended up with melted wires under the turbo and didn't want to ever have that problem again

i think i bought a return line kit at Napa that was for a Factory turbo truck and it had the dead end cap I needed, then i just used a brass T in the line from #1 cap to run the extra line to the back
