The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.

    Anybody Got A Aem Fuel Rail

    I just put on my AEM FUEL RAIL with B&M FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR with a CHM FUEL GUAGE, I have the fuel pressure set at 38 psi (too high or too low). what my question is that.....has anybody felt a horsepower difference or a quicker throttle response or what? my friend came by and he hit the throttle and he felt a quicker response.......and i said that i cant tell a difference so i drove it and i felt more hp and quicker response

    IS IT ME OR IS THIS THE SHIT

          Why would this increase anything? Fuel is not the bottle neck in an all-motor setup, it's the incoming charge of air....how about you all focus your attention on that before wasting money on AEM fuel rails, etc which are not cheap. I'd take some of that money and buy a book on engine dynamics, seriously...I'm not being a d**k, I'm being straight up...you will learn where to put your money and focus your attention on. If you view my message and just being a$$hole-ish your ignorant of the truth.

              ok one...u 2 are smokin something, 2 just bc u r getting a new fuel rail doesn't mean u r doing it just for HP. i got a new fuel rail and pressure regulator and new whole fuel system. it worth the money....helps not just for daily driving but for shows and just to damn well look good. it is like why the hell would anyone get a body kit? or get new tail lights or carbon fiber hood or a dress up kit..."dude they don't increase hp....save the money for a turbo" lmao. to each his own. but i would say as the rules of science apply.....if u replace anything i mean anything in the engine, on a old ass car, it is gonna be better. as long as it is installed correctly and the time is taken to do it right. so i say go ahead and do whatever u want. if u want to get a fuel rail first go for it. it will be the basis for a nos set up later on, if u wann alook at it that way. so without being a complete asshole, i have said my thing. i hope everyone keeps to his owns plans on building his car. do not let anyone influence u on doing something u really do not want to do. whew hope this sheds some light on the subject

                    You tell em Cisco...


                    BTW The stock fuel rail has been proven to provide more than enough flow to handle 275-300+ hp...

                    You're more likely to have a need to replace injectors long before having to even think about upgrading the fuel rail...

                      READ the thread title, hes not asking for your opinion on whether or not he should have gottten a fuel rail. i dont see why people have to flame for no reason, he was asking a simple question, not a paragraph long response to why he shouldnt have gotten a fuel rail . The fuel rail will help a little bit with engine performance, but in the long run, i doubt you'll see a lot of HP from it. And as said before people mostly use it for looks and show.

                        lol ok well as i said b4 think of i this way....a almost 15 year old fuel rail...HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...i wonder how crappy the inside is...take your stock one off and take a look at it..it is amazing how dirty it can get. well anyway, even if u r for more HP and just having youre car run better...a NEW fuel rail is a good investment. if will run more EFFICIENTLY, and will handle for HP and more abbuse. Even if u r not going to add NOS or a turbo it is still a good thing to replace. if anyone has taking a physics class or even has the slightest knowledge about cars, they would know a new fuel rail is better no matter what. ok so maybe 1hp more but it gonna run more efficient and get better gas mileage. o and BTW it is not expensive at all...maybe 100-150. and that is the more expensive side. ebay...probably 75. well off to working on my car again.
