Fuel Rail plumbing for better pressure?
On my C5 A4 Magnuson LS1 I've had split fuel trims for the past 2 years and cant find a cause
Is the fuel pressure the same across all the injectors and is a modification required?
Here is the picture of the proposed changes, but only if the problem is real or just my imagination.

I can see that at WOT there may be a pressure drop from one side to the other, but at closed loop would a pressure difference still exist?
Would appreciate some experience with this subject.
Thank you.

At light throttle a pressure delta does not exist. Not a fuel issue unless you have an injector issue. "Generally" bank to bank differences in ltrims are related to the front o2's. A leak in the exhaust pipe prior to the o2 sensor, bad o2 sensor, running long tube headers, etc. If the delta is small I wouldn't worry about it. 3 to 5 point difference would not worry me (left to right).

The Onboard Wide Band AFR holds about where I want everywhere so I guess there is no material problem here. Perhaps I should be logging less and driving more (out of sight, out of mind).
I just wanted to know if the current fuel path had any part to play in this condition. and survey says---No.
Thanks for the responce.
