Adding inline fuel filter

The fuel filter referenced in this thread is no longer available. Would this one work? It shows 88 GPH at 61.4psi and it already comes with 5/16" fittings. Seems like 88 GPH would be enough.

I would also buy their Vapor Guard hose clamps but I don't know if the hose on my 2017 is actually 5/16" ID (which is just slightly smaller than 8mm... 7.9375mm to be exact).
Either that one or the one jonlafon shows below.
A 280HP tune needs 17 gal per hour at 9000 RPM WOT.
 

So you guys have had these inline filters installed for a few years now. What is the verdict on filtration? Have you seen debris when cleaning the filter? I'm going this route with the new 24' sled as I saw debris in the tank while changing the pump even before I had a chance to run the sled.:dunno:

Yes. Stainless steel element cleans nicely with brake cleaner. Yes, I can see discoloration in rinsed/blown off brake clean so there is some foreign material filtered out by element, very fine particle size.
Strainer is about 40-45 micron.
Filter is 10 micron.
My fuel injector cleaning company told me these injectors will pass anything smaller than about 30 micron. If particles are bigger than 35 they can hang up and contaminate the injector.
Might depend on where one buys their gas? In the boondocks, I doubt those places have much for filtration. That in-line one we see in the hose is often in bypass since it's many years old and never gets changed. I bet those filters are almost like the strainers in gas tank; 40-45 micron.
