I've never done them and haven't really read about too many people upgrading them. What is your concern?

KiTsuNe · 05-20-2008, 01:50 PM

how hard they are to do and if its worth it on a gt52 or fp green

grambo · 05-20-2008, 02:01 PM

^I'd PM flatthump with that question.

KiTsuNe · 05-20-2008, 02:06 PM

ive asked steve, said they aren't necessary but it helps him sleep at night.

I would save my money if I were you. I have seen plenty of Green setups w/o upgraded rails and no problems and the same with the ET GT52.

They look so cool though. Like my oil-pan plug...it is sweet.

that's what alcohol is for

i did fuel rails on the '04.
just because i had to order more parts while waiting to get the car tuned

don't think that i'd do it again though. unless going REALLY big

they also were the source of a fuel leak. but that was user error. or rather assembly error

You should see my 4 gauge welding-cable exhaust grounds and my tranny ground...they are badass. Haven't seen them in quite a while though...

i think im going to get phenolic spacers and tmic and call it a day until i decide what turbo to run.

last of stock turbo power mods would be the spacers and tmic. If someone can think of something else that will net me a bit more power here and there without being ridiculous in price let me know. I also plan to get a A/O separator as well.

If thats the case im looking at 1100 dollars more and then a tune.

After that once i decide turbo im going for, i have to buy.... injectors + turbo. If im not satisfied with the spearco on whatever turbo i get, i'll sell it and upgrade to a fmic with reverse intake manifold.

You could buy the Deatschwerk 7's right now and get tuned with them on the stock turbo for more headroom and to get them out of the way. The GT52/Green shouldn't require bigger than that either, I would guess.
