damn that's nice!
i know that larger than my AEM though.

Honestly speaking, you don't need a fuel rail unless you have a +450whp setup.
the fuel rail is one of the last things that should be upgraded.

Honestly, the fuel rail is only required with 440cc or larger injectors. This way, the fuel bore will supress the injector pulse increasing the injector response and efficiency while allowing a large amount of fuel to be stored until needed. It is really just a pretty piece until you get above 440cc injectors.

Thanks. We have actually been making these type of parts for years, just under different names for other companies. We finally decided that we need to build our own name! Thanks again for the good words.

Those are an old style fuel rail. smaller ports less hardware.

We have a brand new rail that accepts -8 AN and a much higher flowing part. It includes all the hardware and an extra port for a fuel pressure regulator. Give us a call if you are interested. 9090-272-2150

Didnt Golden Eagle use to make your fuel rails and most of your products? Thats what I heard. But I heard that they dont make em for you anymore. Why is that?
