Default Do I need fuel rails???

I have a 02 Firehawk with the normal bolt-ons(headers lid etc.). I have been spraying a 125 wet shot and now I am about to go to 175 maybe 200. I have a racetronix fuel pump. Do I need to get fuel rails for anything over a 150 wet shot??

I don't think so. I sprayed a 150 shot and made 527 rwhp (on my old motor) and had stock fuel rails. Anything over that and you might need new ones but I think your ok.

If you're stepping up to the 150 or better size you really should spend your money on a standalone. The 300 you save from rails will cover about 50% of standalone costs.
