Are you sure you want to fit it smileys/smiley5.gif
You need to find the std pressure regulator.. on the fuel rail, at the side of the inlet manifold.. near air filter in that pic.
Remove the regulator... fit the regualtor tap provided with the FSE kit...
Chop into the fuel pipe, which returns to the petrol tank.
Connect the FSE valve in the return line... conenct the vacuum hose to the top of the FSE.
And thats about it... from a quick memory dredge.
Its far simpler just to fit an uprated std fitment fuel pressure regulator. smileys/smiley9.gif
Look at the fitment instructions, it should be fairly evident what goes where...

dunno how you got on with the power boost valve as it is more than a 2 weeks since posted but with mine i had nothing but trouble, i am pretty sure i got mine in the right place (pretty much because the car worked , sorta) but the goes pretty spastic when trying to idle and mostly just stalls itself constantly, thought it was just the prsssure it was running at but after a week of tinkering and trying to get a pressure where it would actually idle at i just gave up and put the old one back in, seemed to just drink petrol when it was fitted aswell,

my mate just got one took him about 20 mins to fit without instructions works perfect, has gauge and everything.
differently a small difference but u really need heavey engine upgrades really to make it all add up to a large difference.
i might get one as i got a huge flat spot after 5k so that should remove that
