Xdi35, revision?

[GotGrip?]

Hey folks, got my xdi35 this week and was a little confused about the hook ups since I had never see this one installed. I was told by the TUNA that it was redesigned for ease of install and plug maintenance. I'll be installing tomorrow as the bolts I got with the pump are about a 1/16 too long and it won't seat. In terms of the first install I did, I didn't need to loosen anything or move anything except the pump itself which was nice. I'd make a install walk through but I think it's about 5 mins of work. Here's what it looks like.

I screwed around with that fuel line to the rail for probably a good 45 minutes to get it lined up.

Run it! The pump plate didn’t come off when I took my stock one off....tried to get it to come off slightly but it seemed happy to stay where it was so I figured there’s no sense in forcing it just to clean it. Also bc everyone else had mentioned fighting with the fuel line then getting mad and just man handling it to bend in the right way....I was ready to bend it however it needed to go and not worry about breaking it.

Here it is installed.

Man I can't wait to get mine. . Been about 2 weeks since I ordered.

Matt turned up my meth tune for now and it's gets down.

I installed mine without the metal plate as well since it seemed permanently stuck to the stock hpfp. Looked kind of funny with the giant gap being able to see into the motor. Anything that costs over a thousand bucks ought to come with some type of basic instructions.

Or do what I did and not notice what way the plate was facing. Put the plate on with the point up. The get to do it over because it will leak oil

I did that too this winter. Was taking my custom fuel line off to measure it and figured hey while I'm doing this, what a great time to switch back to my stock HPFP and load up my old AJP Turbo tune and see what it runs on dragy.

Started it up and gas was dripping down the front of motor right onto the exhaust. Thought I didn't torque the bolts enough, so gave them each another turn and SNAP. Bolt on the right sheared right off. Spent an hour or so getting the bottom half of bolt out, another couple hours driving around to various junkyards looking for the bolt, ended up getting two at the dealer for 12 bucks.

Somewhere in there I realized I had put the plate on upside down, but had already spent enough time that I no longer gave two sh*ts what that old tune ran and just put the LMS pump back on and called it a day.

Next day I was doing xmas shopping and drove it about 10 miles, went thru the mcdonald's drive thru then parked to eat, left it idling since it was about 20 degrees outside, next thing I know it's idling rough. Shut it off and pop the hood, notice the rear side of the fuel line had somehow popped off, and gas was pouring right down on.....yep you guessed it the rear downpipe! Shocked (and very lucky) it didn't go up in flames.

Ok I’m glad stuff like that don’t just happen to me.
