-8 om the inlet line and -6 on the return lines should be good. Those aftermarket parts are needed on a 400+hp car.

Forget what size the stock ones are, around 1/4" maybe--i forget.

But I recommend http://amstreetrod.com/ for anything earls. Definetly the best customer service, anything you need is always in stock, and best of all--they have the best prices ANYWHERE!

Supply should be ok. Do yourself a favor and upgrade the return line. Check my other post for complete part breakdown for either.

You'll survive w/ the current return. I've been boosting for awhile in the same geographic area (dc metro) 24/7 and have yet to see a failure. I am however looking to replace the whole system. Too bad I got on a bike, haven't been under my car in a month.
