Is there an easy way to relieve the fuel pressure or do I just have to let it sit for several hours before installing this kit.

More of a safety precaution. I have done one that was just ran, and one that sat for a few hours. Just a little fuel spray!

I've definitely sprayed it all over myself before.I was changing a fuel filter after pulling the fuel pump fuse and running a car till it died, and it didn't relieve the pressure as much as I was expecting lol.

Do you think a dealership or...anyone could activate that pin 38 in the ecm for me before my tune? I guess I could just make some phone calls but asking the Internet first is always fun

No, they wont do that. You will have to have your tuner do that.

Yea I called lol. Sent an email to a tuner that's closer to me than rpm to see if they could just activate it for me as well, they don't open for another hour though.

Is this a long process or is it pretty straight forward?

Its as simple as programming it into your tune. Only takes a few minutes.

Cool I'll wait and see what these guys say then. I'd like to be able to start using it just to have a really high concentration for when I get in for the tune. Or I'll just go in on empty and drive up and down the street in front of my tuner until I run out of gas then push my car into the bay. Hahaha

You don't wanna be running e85 until you're tuned for it.

Having the kit installed on my car for 3 weeks before I can get my tune at the end of the month is making me lose my mind a little bit. Just like having the throttle body in my trunk and waiting on a tube still
