Default Raptor Dead!

So, last June I put on a Raptor 100 and was very happy. recently I noticed large fluctuations in my pressure. So like any happy Raptor owner I suspected other things. I changed the filter, twice. Checked my hoses, pump screen, and gage. Lastly I thought the pick up tube screen was plugged so I dropped the tank and put in the Vulcan I draw straw. After I got it back together My pressure was back to normal.... For about five minutes, after that it would drop like a stone. Went for a short hop yesterday and before I could get back the gage was bottomed out and I am panicked. I was able to get it back home with no P0216 code....Yet.

Anyone have any experience with the warranty through Pure flow? I have heard that you need to have sent in the registration card, I believe (?) that happened. I sent them an email yesterday and I am waiting for a response. Can anyone think of something that I could have missed?

How do you have your fuel pressure gauge setup?

I have a fuel pressure adapter fitting screwed into the VP so the pressure is taken right off the VP inlet. The hose for the gauge comes off a neeldle valve screwed into the fitting.

I have yet to hear from pureflow, I sent them an email on Sunday night.
