Default Fuel line size recommendations for this K20-powered E85 turbo application

So in brief, a K20 turbo build, fully forged and sleeved. Aim is for 500+hp at the tires, using GT3076R, twin scroll side winder manifold. Got a SK2 composite fuel rail and FIC 2150cc injectors and on order intank Walbro 400LPH fuel pump, 2 x Bosch 044 in line pumps, K Tuned FPR and Radium universal twin pick up surge tank. The 400LPH will feed the surge tank and the twin Bosch pumps feed my fuel rail. The surge tank comes with AN6 connectors and I previously used AN6 lines on B16 build, but my builder recommended AN8 lines for my fuel setup. Any ideas or suggestions.

im not the smartest feller, but isn’t that fuel setup a little overkill for that power range? The Walbo 400 in tank should be about to handle you needs by itself I would think?

Might be, but I got a good deal on them and it gives me room to expand in the future.

You'll be fine with -6, one of my customers has a turbo b16 with just a Walbro 255 and id1000s that traps 134 mph in a full weight 98 dx sedan.
