No not necessary. The right thing to do would be to install a fuel return imho. That way your fuel pressure isn't voltage dependent. But the stock rails can flow plenty.

Honestly man my car needs a new home. It's most of the way there in terms of parts, but needs a good amount of TLC. If you're on a budget, would be a great way to pick up some nice parts.

It's all about how the car is tuned, and more importantly how the power comes in. Vortechs come in with the rpm unlike turbos, so that smoother power delivery can really make the difference in how long an engine lasts.

I don't mean to call you out or anything, but is there a chance your block is built and you don't know it, say by a previous owner?

NO!

I'm the Original Owner, and I've done 100% of all the work on my car.

All of the Modifications, Tuning and Setup on the Car by Me.

You can't just through some parts on a car and expect it to run like mine does. It requires experience. Plus I've put tons of time and effort to get My Stock Motor 350Z in the 10's.

My Friend Ron did help me recharge the AC after I replaced the Pump and Dryer though.

If you have a Vortech 350Z or G35 and are trying to make over 12psi, you probably need a "TimRod Radius Rod".
