Just wondering... Who has made their own? Is it worth it... I've done some research, but want to hear it from those who have done it, good or bad?
Thanks for your input...

I am pretty sure fuel rails have no benefit other than a cleaner look...

It's more than just looks
Its also about clearing the innercooler

Fuel rails may sound simple, unless you have a strong fabrication background, I would not recomend it, especially if they are available already for purchase. You are not going to save money making your own, if you build them properly.

I have heard that the ones that take the feed line around the blower and not over the blower reduce "hot spots" in the fuel rail.

And then there are those that throw logs on and KR disappears.

Fabrication is not a problem, drill press and tapping, etc. no worries there.
I was more interested in knowing how much of a ***** it might be, leaks, finding the right parts, etc., problems and pitfalls that anyone had.
Interesting that I didn't even think of the heat (s/c) issue, lol...
Wonder if a fuel line I/C would offset some of the heated s/c air?
hehe...
