Instead of calling me a liar why don't you try it for yourself. I used a rrfpr because I wanted to push stock parts further, which I did.

I'm not going to try it for myself because it's stupid. If, by some miracle, you are really making that power and the pump is flowing at that pressure - it's dying. Just working too hard, and at some point it's going to stop, in which case you'll have catastrophic engine failure.And, again, I don't have to try it because I can do the math and not risk my engine. The highest flow I've seen a walbro chart put out is 11gph @ 130psi @ 13.5v. You aren't hitting 13.5v unless it's hardwired. 11gph will only feed enough fuel for ~150hp. And you're making 139psi fuel pressure at 12psi boost.I'm not going to argue with you anymore. If you are doing it, good for you. And stop. And nobody else start. The pump, if overworking itself like shown, will_stop_pumping_soon. -Jeff

just an update, i purchased the fitting from markemark. There really is no option for us peeps using the stock rail besides using a fitting to use an external FPR or using the nismo fpr which still requires a fitting.

Plus, the nismo blows compared to an aeromotive billet, anodized aluminum FPR (and is the same price?!?). Even the moderators are usin' it (Fiznat). If mods are using it, then it's a safe bet it's the cool thing to do.
