[QUOTE="black03, post: 13023655, member: 4037"] Who is your tuner? What color wire are you using to trigger the relays? My best guess is that you're pumps are either bottomed out on the bottom of the tank, you have a voltage drop due to a bad alternator or you've got the relays hooked up to the post FPDM wire which see's variable voltage. The 465's are indeed taller and don't fit in previous version fuel hats without modification. If you have an earlier version fuel hat you'll need to trim the outlet of the pump just below the 2nd barb leaving no barbs once modified. This will allow you to push the pump all the way into the hose without hitting the fitting on the underside of the hat. You'll know the pump is at the correct height if the bell portion of the pump is right against the bottom of the basket that houses the pumps. If the bell portion of the pump hangs lower than that you may end up crushing the pre-filter causing a fuel starvation issue. The new V4 fuel hats from DX use a lower profile fitting on the underside of the hat so no modification to the pump is needed. As far as the return port goes it's located in the same position as it was when the first hats from Fore were offered over 5 years ago. We've never seen an issue with it in that location and have sold hundreds upon hundreds of their hats and the DX ones since. If it was an issue I'm sure we would see more problems from others by now. I personally believe the return tube should be located inside the baffle area as if it's not you'll most likely end up straining that area of fuel much quicker under load. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks, Jared [/QUOTE]
