Downside of blowers especially a roots or twinscrew style, the car is always in boost pretty much. It constantly moves via the belt off of the crank shaft I am screwed by the twinscrew

It was a really small leak but none the less it was a leak. I am wondering if the braids weren't pushed in correctly or trimmed correctly on the connector. I didn't see where the fuel leaked from. I just rubbed my finger and it felt wet and someone saw fuel drip off my finger (FUCK YEAH!). I decided i no longer wanted to stand near his engine bay after that point.

Yeah I saw your post in the other thread. I tightened down the two fittings this morning. Ive never used AN fitting before but they did tighten down more. In fact one felt like it bottomed out which is good.

My leak is shown in this pic that spyder took last night. You can see a wet spot on the fitting in the dust. The rest of the folks that are having issues is from the other end of the line that attaches to the hard line going to the back of the car.

0 runs. lol his car was leaking.

And i felt fuel on the other line... I don't know if it got wet from the braid or the fitting. Keep a close eye... at least it was a very small leak.

Is the braid not just a fancy covering for the actual fuel line underneath?

Sorry, PC nerd here, and that's how it is with those :P I wouldn't trust a braided cord to hold liquid...
