Does this work???

Yeah, everybody knows that anodized aluminum bits add power...

This is a "cash flow device". Its only effect is to make cash flow from your wallet to that of the seller.

have you ever looked at a stock fuel rail? There's not really much to it, and I'm not sure how anything would make it any better.

Cool looking, but probably worth zero HP...

Wayne is right ,0 Horse Power incease,but way cool looking , I.ll probbly buy two ,and lie to my wife as to cost. " Heck Honey i got 2 for only $50.00 " they also have a over priced intake K&N system I,ll probbly pop for that also . I know it makes no sense,but when did this sport make sense anyway? My 2 cents

boy I should get in the fuel rail business and start making some air filters. I didn't realize they were that expensive til I just looked.

[pbanders]

The fuel rail needs to be big enough to supply the injectors at their maximum output. If they couldn't meet this requirement, the result would be very obvious: sudden stuttering at WOT near redline under max load. Since this doesn't happen, then the fuel rails must be big enough, and these aftermarket fuel rails are unnecessary.

Does absolutley nothing whatsoever. You do get a fuel pressure gauge though.

[Jared at Pelican Parts]

Keep in mind that it nothing to do with fuel volume, but fuel pressure. The stock fuel rails do a perfectly good job of holding the fuel pressure around 30p.s.i. To go to a larger fuel rail would only increase the amount of time it takes to pressurize the fuel lines, possibly causing the car to take more time to start when the lines are unpressurized.

Thanks everybody. I'm not surprised that there's no performance gain. Another witch's brew... But what if they were yellow???
