When is it needed to ensure you are getting sufficient flow? What is suggested for the fuel filter as well? Looking to get ahead if needed for future power.

Thanks

Wasnt sure if he was referring to fuel flow in general or just his fuel line. He said he wanted to get ahead for future mods so I figured that he should know that anytime you change airflow you should also do the same for fuel.

well yes, you need a fuel system with adequate flow to match the air flow, and then a fuel controller and a good tune.

Well I am in the process of a rebuild. I got 500's and a 255 walbro with a AFPR. However I do plan on stepping up once I reach the limit of these injectors. My target is to get mid 400... I know the keys are sound motor, intake, fuel, and exhaust.AND most importantly a good tune. I am just curious what are the limits of the factory fuel line. AND any fuel filter recommendations?

Your factory fuel lines should be fine at 400, I've got praise for the SAFC II as a fine tuning device for a/f. Oh, and of course beyond 400 is going to be more than just upping your fuel pressure, etc. etc. insert supporting mods here.

Yea I just bought an AFC neo. I have the MHG, air intake (k&n with a LEX afm) spearco I/C, exhaust. fixing to go ahead and get the AEM Uego. And an electric boost controller. I am just torn on what EBC to get. I would like to find one here used but it don't seem like anyone gets rid of them. Lastly I need someone to tune it to as perfect as it can be.
