Fuel Rail needed?

I will soon be installing:
gsc s1 cams
walhbro 255
780 injectors
apr headstuds

On my:
White turbo
3" intake/ exhaust (test pipe)
Invida UICP/ LICP
MBC

Will i need to install a fuel rail with this setup? Dont want to have the new pump and injectors but have the limited fuel rail holding me back.

I'm not a tuner... I would ask one for conformation.

I have been searching for this answer for a bit in here. There is no black and white answer... but it looks like you will be fine without one.

at a 780CC injector, your rail should be fine... under 1000cc on a single 255 punp should be the cut-off. At that point I would add a rail for added safety.

good luck

^I agree. A fuel rail will not be necessary for your car at this stage in the game. Save your cash for something else
