I'm looking to do a fuel rail on my k24a1 and im thinking about going with the hybrid racing one since im ordering a tensioner from them too. My question is they offer an option for an HR push-on fuel fitting which is for an rsx or 06+ civic si. Will i need this fitting since im running an rbc? and my one buddy is tellin me its gonna be a pain in the ass because of where my throttle cable runs. Will i be able to use this rail and do i need this fitting?

Will that golden eagle work on an a1 with an rbc with no additional fittings and stock fuel line?

I have the s2 manifold on my car and it works with the stock fuel line. It comes with a connector to work with the stock fuel line.

I don't think the fuel line fitting has anything to do with what IM you're running. If you are using your stock ep3 fuel lines I would think you should get whatever fitting is necessary for an ep3.

The only concern between an IM and a fuel rail would be the mounting hole locations and I believe HR says their fuel rail will mount to an RBC.

Like 04si said, it's best to just call HR and confirm.

As mentioned above the fuel rails are not intake manifold orientated, the mani's could care less....

There is an issue with most fuel rails and the RBC mani. This is a honda caused issue though. The studs on the RBC mani for the fuelrail have ever so slightly different spacing. This still works with a stock rail because it has larger holes in a thin steel flange for the studs, while most aftermarket rails have a more precise machining that requires the spacing to be opened up to fit the variance of thee RBC studs. HR has rectified this issue.

Unless you are pushing well over 300whp the aftermarket fuel rail will provide no gains and is entirely a bling option.

DO NOT FORGET to install a fuel pulse damper.

So if im runnin an rbc i should get the hr rail? And what is a fuel pulse dampener..?

golden eagle rail will only work on the k20a2 intake mani, i got the hr rail and push on fitting and it connects perfectly to the stock fuel line

i dont have a fuel pulse damper on mine and never see one installed with an hr rail, i have had no problems so nothing bad will happen if you dont
