I'm not so sure ecutek would be able to get a foothold. With SCT tuners @ ~$400 range and COBB @ ~$500 for the v.3... A locked in $900 tune is not appealing at all. You also have tuners working on the platform for a while and they've got a good following too. As for the GC's SFR and BTRcc both sell tunes that include a new ecu, express posted, in the $850 range...

I know that FA20Club has a kit and that so far there are only the two at this moment....

Was anyone told to use the braided hose BARE without it's end?

And if they were dumb enough to suggest it, and the installer was dumb enough or inexperienced enough to actually do it....

Don't worry. I get it just fine. And I know what fuel lines go where and how they are supposed to he assembled. When to use a hose clamp, a compression fiting, a push lock, a crimp.....

I also don't bite off more than I can chew.

So.... I'll be fine. Thanks.

What exactly is your goal here...? The lines in the picture were instructed to be mated to a metal line with a flared edge, based on a sponsored diy, the best instructions given. While you are right that id doesnt matter much if the end is terminated, in this case it isn't. In this case id, and outer covering matter very much. The kit would have been fine if 1 hose was different, there likely wouldnt have been the leaks, and the OPs car likely would be in one piece.
