Default Fuel Rails, aftermarket

Sorry if this is a repost, but search does not seem to want to cooperate for me.

That being said, are there any aftermarket fuel rails available for the VQ35?

If so, any info?
If not, is there any interest in having top-feed fuel rails created (at ~210 for the pair)?

Thanks

Why would you need them? Usually fuel rail design is something best left to OEM companies as measuring the harmonics inside the rails is very difficult to do without super expensive equipment which almost all rail manufcaturers do not have. Changing rails out usually produces more probloems than they solve. I've seen countless rails actually produce much less linear fuel curves than their stock counterparts so rarely do I ever change fuel rails on any car. There are a few exceptions like the older MR2 3S-GTE engines but in general, the stock rails are better tested than anby aftermarket units available.

So with that said, if we change our injectors to say 720cc ones to feed 500-700whp built VQ engines, our stock rails will be able to flow just fine?

Just wondering. No need to roll eyes at me.

$210/pr would be worth it just to be able to use CHEAP injectors vs. $500+ RCs or $800+ PEs.
