        I'd take a good look and see if there are areas of the fuel line that should be insulated or wrapped up by the hotside. Get a blanket on the turbo and wrap as much of your hotside as you can. I wouldn't change the tank, but maybe the controller combined with what I mentioned will cure it. Don't they make some kind of fuel cooler as well?

          they do make coolers, but i don't know how effective they are and i don't know that i want to add a restriction/added complexity/added risk of a leak to the system.

          the fuel line doesn't come close to the hot side at all, but at it's closest point (still a good 8" from the manifold) it is all wrapped.

          as for the blanket i think that is going to be my next purchase. if nothing else it'll help keep at least some heat out of the engine bay.

          i think rerouting one of the fuel lines from under the front of the intake (sandwiched between the intake mani and the water pump) will help

          here is a picture, i outlined the fuel lines in blue. notice the line that goes to the front of the driver side rail goes under the intake manifold. i am going to reroute it to go above the manifold
