They do look nice compared to stock ones. I think the only thing u might want to upgrade is the fuel regulator (adjustable one).

where is this number from. I "heard" 400WHP a lot, I really have no idea, but just wondering where that number came from
if you need a new fuel rail you WILL be building up your engine and at that point you better know what you are doing. You'll be fine for boost on stock rail...get new injectors though!

Re: how many are still using stock fuel rails? (adseguy)
I made over 400whp with a stock fuel rail. I've seen stock fuel rails work just fine at 600+whp. However, I have since upgraded to an AEM unit with AN fittings for my Aeromotive FPR and braided feed line, but it was not necessary just something I chose to do.

actually the stock rail (3/8" diameter) is good up to 260lph which can vary for max power goals depending on setup.
you dont need that aftermarket rail unless you just want the bling factor and/or like said before, need the extra ports for something.
oh yeah, I took one with me to work a while back and tossed some injectors into the clips and hooked it up to our huge compressor, at 440psi it blew out 2 of the injectors and tore the clips so I welded the injector openings and hit it again, the rail itself didn't pop until 700+ psi.
though, this is air pressure not fuel pressure so take that with a grain of salt I guess haha.

Only because you would need to go to AN fittings afterwards. But I'm sure it can actually flow more than 500whp needs in fuel....
