Yes,I have their kit,but no I dont have any pictures of it installed.
Installation is very easy,just be careful when unbolting the stock regulator as fuel will come out and it pours/drips right onto alternator(not good).Be sure to use rags under fpr and remove gas cap as any pressure in your fuel tank will keep fuel flowing through fuel line.Also,it comes really close to your antilock system,
but works well.! last thing to remember is you will need a fuel pressure gauge of some sort plumbed into fuel system as it is the only way to know what your base setting should be(ie:stock fuel pressure,measured at idle) so that you will know where to start adjusting at.Pruven sells this nice adapter to go on other end of fuel rail that has a fuel pressure gauge and an extra port for any other fuel system additions,ie;NOS,ha,ha,ha.

also you don't have to tighten the bolts up that tight...i stripped mine on my regular lancer's fuel rail cuz i tightened them too much.

For those of you who have FPR/Fuel gauges, what pressures are you running at idle and WOT? I just installed the Pruven adapter and Defi gauge, but for some reason the pressure seems 'low' to me.
