Time to switch over the two purple sender wires. Racetronix includes a paperclip to assist in removing the two terminals from the old connector. These slip into the A and D terminals on the new connector.

The new pump goes into the pump sleeve, then it goes into the bucket. Nick has cut a larger chunk out of the bottom of this sleeve so the filter fits correctly.

The new filter is snapped on, the pressure hose is placed onto the barb, and the worm clamp is snugged down. Be careful here, as this barbed fitting is plastic and it doesn't have to be ultra-tight. The recycle hose is reconnected to the new pump fitting, and the pump power harness is clipped in and retained with the new safety clip. That's it!

The Racetronix harness connects inline with the original wiring, as seen here. Time to reinstall the tank. It is angled up and slipped into place, and Nick keeps an eye on the fuel hoses to prevent damaging them. The straps are reinstalled. TTP also took the time to replace the fuel filter.

The wiring is simple: Besides the tank connectors, there is one relay that mounts n the back along with a ground wire. The engine-bay wiring runs along the stock fuel lines, up through the driver side to the passenger side, and mounts across from the battery.
