Default The benefits of a fuel rail
Im preparing to instal a C38 supercharger kit. My fuel setup is fairly basic, a Walbro 255 and ID1000s.

What benefit would there be in using an aftermarket fuel rail?

They usually allow for connection of a fuel PSI gauge.

OK- so the standard fuel rail is a keeper then for 500hp setups?

What about an adjustable fuel pressure regulator?

Basically everything that's stock in the engine bay can pretty much hold that (fuel rail, IM, etc.)

But would there be any gain in Hp from having any of these over a standard rail and pressure? I read something about ID injectors producing better atomization with increased fuel pressure.

no you will not get any more power. look, if you want to buy some more crap for your engine, go ahead. if you don't want to spend money unnecessarily, then stick to the basics.
