Default AEM rail or stock?

I did a search but its been a while since this has been covered and some peops opinions might have changed.
Ok, Im thinking about getting an aeromotive fpr. SHould I go for an AEM rail which will be a little more convinient or should I save my money and just drill and tap the stock rail so it can work with the aeromotive?
also..second question... do I need an aeromotive? ive talked to some "high rollers" some suggested stay stock while others said i should do it.(ive got aem ems, bosch pump, 450-920 injectors..havent decided yet)
thanks

The reason I got my AEM rail is because of the extra taps in it for additional injectors, gauges, etc. I would get it if you are gunna get the aeromotive fpr makes everything much easier and looks nicer. Just dont get the AEM fpr I hate that thing! I have blown 3 diaphrams on it!

i hate aem fpr's too! stick w/ stock rail if ur gonna run a stock regulator. since ur gonna run a standalone regulator w/ SS line, using earls fittings might as well make things easy on urself and just get the aem rail too.

is the aeromotive needed? like i said i got mixed opinions from some " big dawgs" in here.(im running aem ems btw)i really dont wnat to have to buy it right now..but if i have to i will..
if i go with it ill get the aem rail just for ease of install of the lines etc.

i thought that 1/8" hole is for the fuel pressure gauge?? i'm referring to the hole that the fuel pressure regulator goes on top of...

heres what the paper that came with my rail said-
Note: If you are running the stock Honda fuel pressure regulator, <U>DO NOT</U> install the additional 1/8" NPT plug into the fuel return hole.

been running the ems since day 1. I also run the aem reg/rail as well. For as many returns I see come in, very few are for diaghrams. As a matter of fact probably 3 or 4 in 6 months.

you can either put a gauge right in an extra hole, or run a sensor and use the ems to read the sensor for fp. that's what i would do.
