fuel rails

it appears that the new Champion fuel rails are not legal for TSM. Are they or aren't they and why does that matter anyway?

I vote for making them legal. The stock fuel rail is starting to slow me down.

It would seem that a readily available bolt on part should be allowed

Thumbs up fuel rails

I'll vote for the fuel rails, but i'll have to say no on the intake. just my .02 worth.

This is what i thought different classes was for.

If you have or building an TSM car i think you will be supporting the venders more than you think, just trying to build one of these cars. I think i'm going broke trying too.

Please guys dont get mad at me for putting my .02 cent in. thanks

You don't need to go any faster . The class is already faster than anyone had imagined. If we start allowing more aftermarket parts , bigger turbos and such it will become one of those high dollar classes that only a few can afford. I vote to leave it as is.

I have the new intake and rails (not on new motor yet). I'm keeping them and hope they will be legal some day. I would like to try TSM next year somewhere on the east coast.

Intake is a little heavy, so that makes up for the gains in HP
