It is quite alright if you just want to do it for the hell of it - no problem. However, you can't compare it to doing a fuel pump with raised boost, because like I said, the stock pumps are KNOWN to overheat and fail. The IX pump is better than the VIII pump, but due to all the failures on the VIII pumps, people were much more cautious with the IXs. I hope you can see how that is in no way comparable to changing the fuel rail "just because." It does not fail and has no history of failing, so I just don't want people thinking it is a necessary mod, and i want them to know that some of the best in the business DO NOT upgrade it with much more powerful cars.
