No hp level I'm aware of, at high HP most of the fuel isnt getting returned

Too small of a return line will make it hard to keep the fuel pressure down and heat up the fuel when just idling around.

I am still using the stock steel 3/8 feeed line with -6 connections for a return and a 4303 magnafuel pump and I have no issues at all. Not really sure when a -6 return would be enough of a restriction to start causing problem..
