Fuel Pressure riser

all that will do is raise your fuel pressure, which is already at 60psi...I don't think you need it and I'm not even positive if that will work on a returnless fuel system
that device to me...is just a bandaid fix for injectors that are too small on an FI setup.

To get to the original post, the need to raise fuel pressure isn't necessary. If you did have a return fuel system, you could use it but what would happen is that you're not just raising the fuel pressure during wide open throttle but throughout every driving condition. Overall, you'd be running richer for no reason.

It wouldn't work like you said unless they were to change their rail (which they could) but they'd have to create a return-line system back into the fuel tank...which honestly isn't a bad idea but isn't necessarily something that is a "Need" for most people.
