Default Question about fuel rails before a tune

Okay so i got the nasty performance level 1 street kit that comes with his rails too. I was talking to my tuner and he said put the new pump and racetronix kit in, but not the injectors, drive to his shop, throw the injectors in then we can dyno it. I forgot to ask if the bigger rails will make a difference too?

so should i put the rails on and drive it to the sop or just put the rails on and trailor it?

The rails aren't going to effect how much fuel the injectors send into the engine. They will flow better and hold more volume than the stock rails. Definitely don't put the injectors in until you get to the shop unless you are going to trailer it to there. Even if you trailer it there don't start it up with the new injectors in it. Your tuner will need to make some adjustments to the tune before you can even back it off the trailer.
