Don't know if this is the correct section for this question but I will ask anyways... I am working on my VFR streetfighter and am putting a Gen 8 fuel tank/pump on a Gen 6 frame and noticed that the Gen 8 fuel pump assembly does not have a return line. After looking at gen 8 throttle body I realized that the reason for no return line is that they do not even have a FPR to need a return line. Wouldn't that cause a rich mixture at low rpm's without a return (or did Honda change the mapping to account for that). I am think I have two options...either just remove the FPR and put a plug in like Honda or drill a hole , weld a nipple next to the fuel pump on the tank and make my own return line. I like the put a plug in option because it is easy but am some what concerned with excessive fuel pressure. Would like to hear from some fuel gurus and get their thoughts.
