Default twin in-tanks, stock lines, hi imped. inj box, &huge injecto

I am trying to find a way to build a good fuel system w/o spending big money on lines and fittings. I was wondering how much power do you think twin walbro's(one of them boost referenced), stock lines, a high impediance injector driver and something like 95 lb injectors will support? I am building a set-up with a low compression forged 346 and ls1 motorsports turbo kit(hoping for high six's with 15 psi). From my research I would think that the lines would be the restrictor to supporting more power, but what about the regulator, will I need to change it out ? thanks in advance

mike brown in his incon CE just went 9's on stock lines, stock regulator, single walbro and 42lbs svo's
think he was making over 600rwhp all on stock bottom end.

so it should get you that much

The lines are good for about 600rwhp thats about all. Any more and I would step up. We are putting together custom fuel systems w/ our rails and better lines. Email for info.

When all is said and done, when you are going with big FI you should run bigger fuel lines, so getting a new set of rails is a good idea.

Might be hard to get the stock pcm to idle with 95 lb injectors.

I have 83 lb Siemens + FAST system.

I'm not using the stock reg. I'm using a 1 to 1 that came with the Incon kit. Regulator works fine but the pump or the lines can't keep up and is dropping pressure. If your going to do it. Do it all. I'm replacing everything when the new motor goes in this winter.
Were taking some more weight out of the car and running it one more time. Then hitting the dyno before the motor change.
