Default turbo rsx, return fuel line or no?

my neighbor is looking at getting a kit for his daily driver. 03 rsx. i dont know much about k series

i noticed some people were saying you had to add a return fuel line. and some say you dont.

if he were to go w/ a regular revhard kit and say some 750s and kpro. does he need to run a fuel return line or not?

Nope he'll be fine with moderate boost levels. The returnless fuel system seems to become inefective at 400 + hp. This is of course injector and fuel pump dependant.

That is until you exceed around 400 hp. Then it doesn't matter what pump you are running, you need to add a FPR and return line.
