Default Should I change my civic fuel line?

I did a gsr motor swap into an ek. Im currently using the stock civic fuel line with the gsr washers and pulsation nut. My car feels laggy. Can I reuse the civic fuel line with the gsr washers? I compared both the cut gsr fuel line with the civic's and they look different. Anyone else did this and dont have any problems with their motor?

arent they different though? I had to bend up the 2 things that stick up on the civic line... also the gsr fuel line has 1 opening that is wider than the other side. but the single cam line is the same size on each opening.

you're supposed to run a GS-R fuel line, otherwise it will run lean.

From what i read on it if your interchanging between a fuel rail with the solid not on the end of the fuel nut and the damper pulsation nut then you need to change the line to whatever type the donor engine uses or it will run lean, i haven't had any personal expirence with it, thats just my reading of it. Its mentioned in honda engine swaps (aaron bonk) if you care to check it out.
