The issue is the volume of fuel you are putting through the rail at stock pressures. That volume associated with the bigger pump creates a pressure drop across the rail. It's impossible for a stock regulator to fix that.

So what happens is one injector sees more pressure and overfuels that cylinder.

Because of where the regulator is, you won't UNDER-fuel any cylinder, but some will be grossly over-fueled. This will cause carbon buildup at an accelerated rate.

It bothered me enough to get a Wolfkatz rail for my car, even back when I ran 440s.
ahh i take that back then...would it be sever enough tho?

Would a heat build up of sorts occur?

Being a hydraulics person i like to learn the technical crap too :P
