Nope, not if the car is modded heavely. Turbo or NOS Setups need lots of fuel, for high horsepower setups Fuel rails are worth it other then that they look very nice.

if you dont have over a 65 shot of juice, turbo, a JRSC or a monster of an all motor setup then keep your stocker. take that $120 and put it towards something better like a QUALITY header.

Thinks about it, putting a fuel rail on a stock engine doesnt just automatically boost up the fuel pressure. There is still room to push more psi through the oem fuel rail then the factory has set. I only put one on mine because the fitting werent those stupid banjo bolt connections.

I just got a Venom fuel rail for my Euro-R motor. I only bought it because the motor came out of a right hand drive Accord and in my CL the fuel filter is on the left hand side of the car. On the stock fuel rail the inlet for the fuel line is on the right side so I had a long line going up across the fuel rail to the inlet. It looked like ****. The Venom rail has ports on the sides of the rail and took about 8 inches out of my fuel line(much nicer). The Venom fuel rail is the only rail I know of that will fit a Euro-R manifold.
