I think if there was any performance benefit to having a fuel filter in either line then we would see it in every nitro racing kit. But i believe most guys are just running only tubing. I've heard of using tubing length to control some of the fuel feeding and exhaust pressure characteristics, but its not really something I know anything about.

The thing on the pressure line that looks like a fuel filter is most likely an air cooler. There are no performance benefits of having fuel filters but I'd recommend having one so your engine won't be sucking in any potential mess.

way back in the day i remember seeing something about an 1/8 buggy racer who was running a fuel filter between the pipe and tank. it was supposed to act as a heat sink and to keep the fuel cooler. i tried it on a 1/10 TC and couldn't tell any difference. but i wasn't racing competitively ether so...
i would imagine if it had any measurable positive effect every pro racer in the world would be doing it.
