I am installing a 100hp nitrous plate kit. The system uses twin fuel pumps, do i need to upgrade to a 1/2 inch fuel line to supply both pumps or will 3/8 suffice?
Really depends on the rest of your setup. How much power are you making without the nitrous? Also running 2 fuel pumps off the same line seems kind of inefficient.... Why not just run a small fuel cell for the nitrous? or upgrade to 1/2" line and a good pump with 2 regulators.
Fuel line size is important with EFI, but there is a tendency to oversize feed lines. A high pressure EFI system does not need the same size lines as a low-pressure carbureted engine. A 3/8" diameter line (-6 AN) line is adequate for engines to at least 750 HP. This is a conservative number. A ½" diameter line (-8) line should be used on engines over 750 HP.

Great idea, ill go for the 1/2line upgrade and good pump with two regulators. Thanks man. I guess i over-engineered that one.
