Just out of curiosity what is your reasoning behind this? I would have recommended the opposite.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you have ethanol and 93 local to you, would it not be a waste to not take advantage of both ? Even if your goal is “just” 450, isn’t it more easily achievable (and safer) running an ethanol mix vs just 93?

IF xdi come with a dropin fuel line instead of having to bend the oem one i would choose the xdi option im a bit scared about bending a fuel line

I agree with that. I wonder if they would consider doing that if they have enough interest.

I can tell you from actually doing the install, bending the line is no issue, it’s easy. If you are to actually swap the line out, it would take you an additional 2 hours to undo a bunch of stuff. XDI is the way.

Am unfamiliar with the fuel line, but am planning to add the XDI eventually....

Is it not possible to have a shop fabricate a custom replacement line?

They would have to either source an OEM line and bend it, or custom fab a new nice, which would cost $$$. There's no need. Just bend your OEM line upwards about a 1/2". Or, loosen the bracket holding it and bend.

if money is not a concern, i dont see why you wouldnt be able to find a shop capable of doing it.
get an oem line, bend it to fit and have a shop match it.

also make sure it can withstand 250 bars of pressure lol.

If money wasnt a concern, just go with the Hondata FSU instead LOL

I take it that you did not drill out the the factory line? Did this cause any tuning issues?

I did not drill the line. There is no need to drill the line out. The pump alone can provide more than enough fuel to support power goals. I was able to run up to e60 and pump duty stayed around 80%. I have not yet tried more ethanol.

While this is true for eblended gasolines Im still waiting on results from 93oct fbo cars as some of us do not have e85 accesible. There is a lot of talking and speculation around but not enough data to back it up.
