fule line upgrade

im in the process of installing my new fule rail (thanks Hayce)
i was woundering if i should use the same size full line.
im putting in steel braided lines 2 make it look nice.

im going to be putting in a new forged motor in soon
ither 1740 cc b16a or a b18c.
looking at 250 kw+ hopefully.
im currently running a walbro 255 fule pump and aftermarkit fp reg.
how much power can u make off standard lines??
im going to be changing them ither way so i was woundering if i had to make them bigger to achieve my power goal.

you'll be fine with 250wkw on stock lines. I think it's when you're looking over 500hp(at crank) you need to start considering it.

Just make sure your fittings going onto the stock lines are on TIGHT

I left a 1km trail of fuel down the motorway the other night.. so so so lucky it was squirting directly down onto the road and not around my engine bay/exhaust!!! 8O ops:
Emptied my tank in under a minute... (but then my fuel system is capable of delivering 520L/hr)

Anyone who's every done any fuel changes or heavy mods should have a mini fire extinguisher in the car easily accessible, just in case...
