2 x -6 on the Corolla and 2 x -8 on the Capri both run around the same pressure. i will be running 2 x -8 fuel lines on my drag car which will be making around 1500hp on methanol, which equates to enough flow for 3000hp on gasoline.
i'm not sure what your tuner is telling u about it being thicker. as i said get 20L of E85 and 20L of BP98 etc and measure how high they sit. if e85 was alot thicker the drums wouldn't be the same size.
1 gallon of gasoline produces 114,000 BTU's
1 gallon of E85 produces 76,000 BTU's
that is why 30% bigger injectors and fuel pumps are needed.
