Guys here is a photo of what I believe to be the most up to date HPFP for our car. It has changed from the original design u may see in installation videos. The other two photos are the but you will have to loosen right below throttle body to move fuel line and get it to line up easier, the last one is of the end of my fuel line that you no longer need to take loose unless putting in E-85 sensor. Most importantly those clips are as brittle as they come. I would suggest picking up a spare at AutoZone for $14 before attempting this job. Mine broke in 4 places. I was able to clip back in and wrap with electrical tape and zip tie until new ones came it. Took 5 days for them to be shipped .

Hey @Austin2013SHO and @kryptto, great work. Followed your trail here and got my XDI in just now. Did have to fight with the high pressure line and remove the throttle body to get that pesky screw. I didn’t get it seated right the first time and on startup immediately had a drip…reseated it and now it’s dry. Sure wish this had been easier!
Thanks for the great posts!

Your welcome and glad you found this thread. Of course XDI knows there is a length issue and will constantly say it fits but the got resigned and is definitely not a correct fit. Worse off they won't make an extension whip, or ask me to come to Tampa and use my car as a way to fit it properly. But glad you are up and running.

I can't tell you how much torque on that stainless steel threaded nut I needed to apply. BTW thanks for replying, sometimes you wonder if the time and effort is worth it. You give me hope again... ;)
