Starting from the drivers side of the motor compartment, near the throttle body, you have a feed that goes IN to your rail. This is a black piece that is connected by 2 philips screws on that side of the rail. On the opposite side of the rail is the stock fpr. When you take this off, you'll notice that it has a long metalish-black tube that will go back twords the IN side of the fuel rail, and is connected to a rubber hose. You'll need to disconnect the metal from the rubber. This is your return.
When you put on an aftermarket fpr, like the one's tanc, jon, and myself have posted pics of, it works the same. You'll follow the same path for the return, only with a stainless steel line. Now you could technically run the SS line back all the way for the return, but I have my line connected to the original rubber piece.
On our cars, the stock fpr is on the passenger side of the rail. This is opposite of dsm's and a multitude of other cars I've worked on, so thats why it may seem a little weird to hear its on that side. Most people will mount them back on the passenger side firewall because that is simply near to where the stock one was before, and also there is quite a bit more room to work there, as appose to mounting it near the throttle body, break resivour, and intake. I'm sure you could get it over there if you wanted to though.
I'm gunna dig around my junk pile when I get home and see if I can find my stock fpr, I'll take a picture so you can see what it looks like disconected. This may give you a better idea of how the system looks.
Does this make sense? I sure hope so, its hard to explain things without pointing and discussing it.

Just ask me if you have any questions about that rrfpr. btw, That thing would look awesome if you polished it. I was going to but then I decided to go a different route.
