ZEX ..FPR question

Hey guys.. I have a question about installing the Zex dry kit on my friend's 5th gen Prelude. For the hose from the ZEX unit to the fuel pressure regulator, do I need a little plastic T-adaptor? If so what size should I get? I know that the hose with the ZEX line is 3/16'', what about the OEM line on the FPR? Also, on the FPR, am I tapping the TOP vacuum hose? The bottom one is actually fuel right..and I dont want that.

Also, since there is a vaccum line to the intake manifold and the FPR, won't this be two vacuums that the unit is "seeing". I fail to see the point in this... Im guessing the ZEX unit will change the vacuum pressure to the FPR at WOT to "trick" it into flowing more fuel?

Thanks!

the line running from the intake to the FPR is what you need. Basically you run the hose from the intake manifold to the zex box barb that is labeled "Intake", then you get another fuel line and run it from the regulator barb on the box back to the regulator.

That is all.
