Default Fuel Rail Upgrade Needed??

I'm Going to running a turbo Kit at about 8psi. I'm wandering if it's neccessary to upgrade my fuel rail at this point? I'll have 650cc injectors, with a walboro 255 fuel pump, Hondata P72 - Should I have any other concerns with my fuel management or items I need to purchase??

aftermarket fuel rails are pointless, the ONLY reason i got one was for the -8an fittings that work with my fuel lines. Looks pretty, but waste of money IMO.

the fuel rails people are using are mainly to make it easy to hook up aftermarket adjustable fuel regulators and/or aircraft type AN fittings for fuel lines. just changing the rail would only be for looks. I have a new-in-box STR eliminator for sale btw...

Or you can just tap the ends for 1/4" npt and buy some adapters, like I did.
