Default Vortech Woes

I know we have a boost section but this is related to the 5.0 engine is there any sn95 guys running a vortech? I just installed my system and not happy at all. First i get to the point where i install the return line from the blower to the pan and guess what no line!! So i go get some hose install it wrap it up and start it. I have fuel pouring from the trex from the banjo fitting and the return line where its crimped by vortech. So i try to tighten the fitting no luck still leaking i get the one line to stop by installing a new hose clamp but the banjo is still leaking. Next problem the oil line is pissing at the pressure hose at the blower! so i take it all apart and tighten the lines clean it up and its coming from the crimp WTF is nothing tested?? I spent big cash for this product and im pissed so i call tech support wait on hold for 15min and i get the responce im xfer to the operator press2 to go back and wait when you hit 2 it says not available and hangs up lol So anyone else have a f***ed up time with poor quailty parts? I thought i would have a hard time with taping the pan that was the most straight forward part lol Thanks for letting me vent!
