Hey Jack! I have not as of yet but will be this coming weekend. I have the wires in place but need to actually route them and cut to size etc. I am going to remove the balast and put the wires together as suggested above and see how that goes.
My main focus the last week or so has been redoing my fuel system. I finished installing a dual fitech intake pump the other day and have new braided nylon lines i am using now too. Need to cut them to length and install the new regulator once that arrives hopefully in the next couple of weeks. Once i get my fuel system figured out I will finish up the wiring and then see what happens!
My last piece of the puzzle will be what guage of wire to use at the fuel pump when factoring in voltdrop. I got some great advice on that from here too!
What is your fuel system comprised of? Do you have an intank pump? Or the FCC?

Sounds like you have things under control. What I did when I took the ballast resistor out of the loop was use a jumper wire to connect the existing wires so that if I ever wanted or had to go with a ballast again I would have the wires ready to go. I used the same gauge wiring as the FiTech wire for everything including the fuel pump. My reasoning for that was that FiTech probably factored in the possible run to the pump near the gas tank. It seems to work great and the wire is not getting hot. I routed it the same as my fuel level wire.

My fuel system is as follows. Stock tank with 3/8 sending unit. I used 6AN braided hose and fittings for everything. I went from the tank to a 100 micron filter then a Walbro 392 inline pump. From there I ran the hose forward to a 30 micron filter mounted in the engine bay. I then split the lines with one going to each throttle body. On the return side I have twin outlets going to a single line that terminates at the tank just above the sending unit where I installed a weld free bung. Seems to work pretty good so far with no fuel starvation. The Fitech is controlling the pump cycling. I plan to install a safety momentum shutoff switch during the winter to make sure that the pump shuts off if I ever wreck the car.
