I am looking to add a Nitrious system on my car but figuring out the fuel deliver to the extra pump would be difficult I thought, then I started thinking if the return line could be used to supply fuel to the Nitrious fuel pump that would resolve that issue...

Any one know?

I think it will--up to a point. There is no strainer over the return port, and I believe that the end of the return fitting inside the tank is higher than that of the supply fitting. So it will run out of gas earlier.

I don't know of any check-valve in there or anything like that, though.
