Those are like nylon but something else, not sure what the material is. It's from Highpower the people that make the nitrous system. They aren't push to connect, these use a crimp like olive connector.

Well this is how my set up endded up looking like. I might just have to make the carb fuel log out of black fittings though. The blue doesn't match anymore!

If you look at the steel braid line going to the pulsoid the last pick, the jet fitting is under the bigger blue fitting on the pulsoid enterance, look just under it and you can see the all black earls pro-lite -4 thats headed toward the passenger side fender! I just realized it's along the fire wall..... tech probably isn't going to like that are they????

The gauge port of the Barry Grant 4 port regulator, or the nitrous regulator/s? Or both?
Which regulator is the fuel pressure bouncing on?
What model and brand of nitrous regulator are you using?

A picture would help describe your system better..

Do you have a couple Holley 12-803 regulators laying around that you could try for the nitrous regulators? That's what we use and have not had issues with those bouncing, with or without bleeds.
