you'll have to pick a metal line.
there are no rubber lines.
most countries its now illegal to use rubber fuel lines on efi cars.

there is a rubber line that runs from the fuel filter to the fuel rail.

The first 6" is metal and the last 6" is metal, but the middle 12" is rubber.

That is the one you want to tap. Be sure NOT to tap the fuel RETURN line. You want to tap the line the goes into the fuel rail on the drivers side.

Look on my site on the nitrous page and it's the first pic. http://pages.prodigy.net/jtmccauley/ Just follow the fuel path and you'll know where.

oops, sorry i forgot about the reinforced flex bit.
actually i think there is a
difference in the fuel lines for au models

i only have a short rubber piece, but its not from the filter
it appears to be just for engine flex.

sorry for my misguidance, i'll shutup

fuel port pressure adapter????
Can't say I've got one of those.

Just splicing into the hard rubber line is fine. Use barbed fittings to ensure a tight fit, and use 2 hose clamps per side, again, to ensure a tight fit.

Don't worry about cutting the rubber line. If you need to replace it later, go to AutoZone or wherever and buy a replacement for $1 per foot. No biggie.
