If you mean will it help by making power, no fuel rails don't make power

If you mean is it a good idea - it is often quoted that the standard fuel rail is good to around 400hp, so unless your pushing a lot of power I don't see any need for it, definitely better things to invest your money in.

Hope that helps

people only put fuel rails on that can deliver more fuel when they reach the limits of their stock fuel rail....when the engine has been modified in a way that it is making so much power it needs alot of fuel to do its business.simply putting a rail on that can flow heaps makes no performance gain,its an upgrade to the fuel system to support the engine making higher power...keep your stock rail,unless you want bling
