Hey there Chris. Awesome vids! They help a lot. Do you run a filter in your steering system?

Yes. The PSC reservoir has a removable filter in it.

What are your thoughts on PTFE for high pressure lines?

I like PTFE hose for fuel lines because it is so compatible with all fuel types and additives, and will not break down like rubber will with race fuels. But for Hydraulic Steering lines, I have never been a fan of PTFE because it has a horrible bend radius compared to good old 1 or 2 braid hydraulic hose, and usually is rated for less pressure (working and burst) than regular cheap -8 hydraulic hose. I really see no need for PTFE unless you absolutely have to run lines close to your headers (it has a better heat tolerance), but you wouldn't do that anyway because it would heat up your fluid and cause worse issues.
