Okay,

after looking at my Fuel Pump hanger (it's been years since I've done this), it seems the fuel pump is grounded to the Fuel Pump Hanger itself and there is this little black box that connects to the power wire. Does anyone know what this black box does?:

Not sure, but maybe that is some kind of thermal breaker? What is the part number on it?

From some quick Google searching, it appears to be a noise filter.

It is a condenser .. stabilizes voltage to the pump .

Thanks guys! I'll be sure to post pics of my new setup for everyone . Seeing how a lot of aftermarket setups don't use it, I'm guessing I should remove it and just use direct 6 gauge wire, sound good ClubLexus'ers?

I am still up in the air to use two pumps and convert to E85. This would be a great for a dual TT DIY.

What I'm really interested in, is how some of you are getting the AN line from underneath the car to the top hanger?! will the -8 line fit between the tank seal thing where the factor hard line is? On my previous setup i drilled a hole through the rear firewall where i was able to get the line through. This time around I am trying to ovoid that.

Why do you wanna use that factory feed line fitting? it's defeating the purpose of you having 2 pump and big lines.

What are you trying to do? hit me up when you get a chance.

I want to completely eliminate all the hard lines under the car and tank... I want to know of options to seat the two holes for the feed and return lines under the tank where the two banjo bolts are currently. I don't want to weld.

there is no need to do what you are suggesting .. just cap the hard line inside the tank .. look inside your tank and youll see what im talking about ..once capped inside youre done .. or use the orig feed banjo and return banjo for your return lines .. its very easy to do
