I am planning on redoing the engine compartment with 6an ss braided, but I don't what to swap out the lines under the car. How much fuel can they supply, how much power are they good for? Thanks,

the inner diameter of -6 earls ss line is basicly the same as the stock hard lines.. i have no real idea how much fuel they can push, but im sure you can figure out how much water can be pushed through a pipe that size and then figure out how much actual fuel a certain amount of HP requires (www.rceng.com has the formulas)

lol the stock line is nowhere near the size of a -6.. its not even as big as a -4
if you push more than 10psi i would use larger than 450's.
and if you got bigger than 450's you are looking at getting larger fuel line...
so i'd say the limit is around 350hp.

Can anyone confirm? Thanks.

keep in mind these are not set rules. you can do what you want. the specs i gave you may be considered on the low side. but they are safe... last thing in the world you want is to bake a motor due to detonation from fuel startvation. some people will say, naw man you can run 22lbs of boost on stock lines with an fmu. Sure you could, but if we are talkin about a well built reliable setup mine are the basic rules to play by.

i say add the water/alcohol injection kit, no more worries about detonation
