I think you're right, the Phase 1 had a return, the later ones didn't....my '53 172 is returnless. If I turbo'd it i'd switch to the method in the diagram.
So...if the reg is in the tank then, is it Pump to a T-Piece, one line goes to the reg and one to the rail and it works by relieving the pressure almost like an oil pump relief? If so, does it allow for boost pressure or does it just run such high fuel pressure it doesn't need to?
Interested to know how it works with a FI application.

Well car went for mapping on Friday came out with 260bhp at fly and 200 at wheels had a slight leak from throttle body stopping us from going for more power

Signed up for drag event at lunch time car did perform as good as I hoped first run launch control limited first and second gear then end of second and start of third there was no boost which turned out to be a vacuum pipe had came off

Has to be the plan now....sent my map to Andrew Geer who owns clioturbo.co.uk so he can have a look at it as I posted a video of my turbo glowing red hot and he thought it was weird......turns out ignition timing is it out 10 degrees which is bollocks
Made a mistake not taken it to scoff
