Default Metco fuel rails and whipple. (Attn: Modaddict)

Anyone running aftermarket fuel rails with the whipple? I'm about to upgrade my fuel lines and rails (beginning preperation for next years major boost upgrade and forged internals) and I'd like to go with Metco. They have a great price for what they are offering.

I noticeMetco rails run a crossover tube that runs behind the intake. Has anyone been successful running this setup with a whipple? I seem to remember Modaddict having aftermarket rails, but I can't find the thread. I'd like to know that someone else is successful before I pull the trigger, and I'm willing to consider other brands as well.

My biggest question, if there is anyone running Metco rails, is whether or not they had to do any modifications to the kit in order to use them. As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

Yep - I have the Metco rails on my car with the whipple right now.

Jared at Lethal Performance really helped me dial in how to set it up. He also sells the rails. He included in my kit all the fittings I needed and enough line to play with the combo and some great ideas of how to run the crossover.

The rails are NICE. Give Jared a call and he'll hook you up for sure. It's pretty easy but if you have any install issues, just ask...

Thanks modaddict, I'll definitely talk to Jared. Looks like it was a pretty straightforward install without much modification to the kit. I hope it goes easily, but the easiest projects are the ones that often cause the biggest headaches. For example, I got through the entire whipple install with no problems, but the simple task of screwing the O2 sensor into my exhaust for the wideband took me hours, lol. (The threads in the bung were overheated when the exhaust shop installed it.)
