for your application you probably wont need one, and by probably i mean definitely. i guess there would be the bling factor but save your money.
just read your actual post, your friend is right.

The stock fuel rail is plenty fine for 99.9% of our applications.

If your setup is in your sig, definitely waste of $.

I'd only upgrade the fuel rail if I couldn't get enough fuel after upgrading both the pump, and the injectors. It's likely that I'll never reach that point and neither will you. Don't waste your money.

Just plan on having it dyno-tuned, otherwise you should consider a different upgrade.

its a waste of money unless you upgrade the entire fuel setup....its like a funnel concept...you can only go as fast as your smallest diameter....
