also check out this pic of what size our stock rails are at for those of us who are still running around on stock rails with big injectors
i cut open a extra rail i had laying around yesterday and put it alongside a -8an line , the stock id of rail is LESS then 3/8 whereas a -8an is about 1/2in rail id should be slightly larger then lines supplying it to keep volume constant and also aids in keeping fuel cool

So earlier I was coming back from a friends house and I was cruising about 55-60. I was listening to my music I heard a loud exhaust from some car i look over and see a silver IS300 with a exhaust and red calipers he was trying to race what looks to be a black 350Z all I can see was the roof and hood of the Z but it looked different from the normal. the Silver IS300 did three beeps and they went at it. The Z pulled 2 cars on the stock IS300 from what looks to be a 3rd gear pull. I notice that the Z looked different I pulled up closer to see when I did it was a 370Z must be new.
I pulled next to the driver and saw that he was about 20-25 years of age he waves his hand in a go away motion and goes WOT I do the same but since he dropped gears before I did he left me by 1 car and when I went into boost I reeled him in before 80 and left him by 1.5 to 2 cars behind. he pulled next to me and gives me the "WTF???
" look

This morning decided to drive the SC to work .So I'm driving along and this Infiniti M35 or 45 couldn't tell,pulls along side @ a traff. light.We both look over to one another cars, nice lowered 20 inch wheels.I gave the guy a nod as to say nice car .Well everything is cool the light turns green we both pull off like gentlemen.Yeah right for maybe the first 25-30 feet .I have to go WOT just to move this car off the line because of the 102 back housing.Well Mr. M what ever took it the wrong way ,and blasted me ..All I could do was laugh about it and go on my way..Wait it gets better .The guys slows down to let me catch up .Boy did he just F himself now I'm in 3rd going about 45 mph still not just yet in boost I apply my brakes and start to mash the gas peddle. I just didn't want to suck his driver off I want to blow his whole front end off.Mr. M takes off again but this was different I went in to boost and like I had rockets in my trunk the after burners lit that fool up.NA or not the dude deserved it..Jerome that obx is one nasty turbo thanks for letting me borrow it..I free to be me..

Nice kill and anytime brother!
Well, let me be the first to say that with this new turbo that's on John's car it definitely has lag like a mother. I think John says that it comes on at 4K rpm's but when this sh@t hits it hits hard as hell! This turbo has the 3800 lbs. SC on 20's burning tires like you wouldn't believe!
If this is a preview of John's Billett turbo that's otw then alot of people are in trouble. Hint, hint, (Ed)
...Lexforlife
Also, John there's no reason to worry about the lag on the current turbo because remember that Ed only built his car for highway runs where he can take you deep up top so the lag won't affect you!
All I can say is the way the car performed that night when that turbo hit is that you need to hold on to the steering wheel tight and hold that wheel as straight as you can! Let the games begin...
