yet another question... can you use rubber fuel hosing with a high pressure fuel pump? I am planning to use the R1 fuel pump which I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) is a high pressure pump and not sure if the rubber hosing will be sufficient. Do i need to fork out for braided?

cheers,

I wont use braided on fuel lines, as you cant see if they are perishing. A normal rubber fuel line should do you, just make sure its for fuel injection (Pressure rated).

Atif it has to be marked as high pressure for IVA iirc
