re-check awg, e6k

I had seen a guide for fully wiring a FD with a E6k, with the wire guages listed but no longer... (but couldn't verify it anyway)
This is for a jdm s5 t2 (The plan is to rewire to fit the E6X diagram for easy diagnosis)

Wondering if anyone here would mind giving me a hand with double checking before I buy several feet of wire.
The plan is to re-wire and color code for the listed below?

For the Injectors: #1-4+power --- 16awg

For the Ignition (coils):
Ign1/Ign2/Ground/Aux:out --- 12awg

For the Fuel pump:
#85 Trigger for switching the fuel pump on *From relay to simple on/off switch* --- 16awg

#30 12v direct on fuel pump to fuel pump relay ---12awg

For the fuse box:
20(30A)Fuse box to #87 fuel pump relay --- 10awg
20(30A)Fuse box to Battery Direct --- 10awg

Kind of get overload googling wire/gauge or even awg on forums.
I Know theirs a post and guide in existance

hmm

Double checked with haltech + hitmans guide... 14 guage ain't too common around my part.

Even off base harness, which was a N374 having troubles verifying, beides injectors.
All im aware of is ,theirs no bussiness using 8 or 22.

Guess im asking, what I would be safe with rather then blowing fuse, using 14 over 16 if possible.

I use 14g to feed the injectors from the relay. Run that out to around a foot from the injectors and splice in the individual feeds. 18 or 20g from there is fine.

Ignition is the same. 14g to 18g. Trigger wires for the ignition can be 20g.

Fuel pump can't be too big, but 12g is usually good for most pumps.
