Help with EFI conversion
How have you guys sorted your induction system as I noticed the K&N cone off my metering unit does not fit?
Now that the metering unit has been removed how is the fuel return plumbed in?
Also what to do with the vacuum hose to the brake servo? Do I need an FRST one?

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Hello mate,
Induction wise, I've gone for a Cosworth Group A cone filter and trumpet to fit a T3 turbo and fitted it on to the hose that went from the Turbo to the metering unit.
Fuel system goes:
Fuel filter > fuel rail > fuel pressure regulator > fuel return pipe
Brake servo pipe I've used an XR3i EFi pipe. But you can use any silicone hose suitable to draw a vacuum and use the original fittings and fire trap.

Well I picked this from Matt Lewis and I can't get it to fit;

cannot get a decent grip of the trumpet when fitted in the hose it just keeps popping off. Have tried three different clamps now of varying width and still no joy.
Tried cutting my boost hose to make it fit but the filter is so dam big!
What hose does everyone use cos I probably just cut up a perfectly good hose.
