Hi there,

Float Bowls - You just connect the breather pipes from your carb float bowls to your inlet manifold - normally 2 in Keihin / Mikuni carbs which emerge from the rail att he top of the carb assembly.

Fuel Pump - You need to supply fuel at a pressure around 2 psi higher than your boost pressure at any given time. For this you can buy a boost sensing pump which will do it for you or make something clever - I suggest the former! Let me know where you get yours from - I'll need one soon!
