Default Fuel Return Lines

Has anyone installed the dual fuel return kit that connects to the fuel test plugs in the end of each head which then returns to the fuel return line? I guess its supposed to give the air another place to return to other than through the injectors or cure the "dead head" problem. If you have, have you noticed any improvements?

I have a regulated return system, but you are talking about the cross connect kits that are out there...

If your going to mess with the fuel system, do it once, and do it right.

Ok Thanks This is what I was looking at. Riffraff Diesel: Fuel Rail Crossover

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

I was also wondering not on the same topic but I saw a none EBV exahust housing for the turbo. Will that affect anything with cold weather warm up? Or just wont make that really lound blowing noise out the tail pipe?

It will effect your warm up in the winter, but not starting.
