Default need help w/ driftmotion aeromotive AFPR kit

hey all ive been workin on my car for a while now. i have a soarer 1j stock swap sc4 and im tryin to install my aeromotive AFPR kit. has anyone done a step by step install at all using this kit. can anyone provide those steps pls. im no mechanic at all but i do the work on my car if i can.

thanks u all..

well.. update:
i installed my afpr kit about a month ago and what i found out was im losing fuel pressure. My afpr gauge actually losing pressure when im on gas, its almost like goin up and down. Battery been unplugged ever since..Today i popd the hood and check my gauge and the needle is on Zero.> Could I lose pressure down to zero cuz i unplugged my battery? Do i need a new fuel pump? or i have a leaked smowhere? The main problem that im having is my car wont rev pass 3k rpm and i can only cruise within 25mph..Before i installd my afpr kit i took my car for a drive after about 25mins or so of cruising all the sudden the issue went away. my car was running strong like supposed to. i drove it for another 30mins or so and it was fine..the next day issue was back. Sorry if ya'll have to read thru this but man im just so confused . I need help anyone pls.

this can get a little complicated, and can involve fuel leaks and/or fire.

i'd recommend getting some help.

Sounds like it is a fuel pump is going to die as they often do this when going bad but check all of your connections first to rule out the simple and cheap things.

Just get a walbro 255 pump model gss342 as this will for sure take care of any fueling problems up to about 500whp and they are about 90.00

Did you ever get that aeromotive kit installed? When you or the shop installed it did you delete the fuel dampner?
