How fast thes the aquasafe aquarium 2 output water and how hard. Im gonna guess since it says on their site its 100gpd, its spec is 1:1 ratio to make sound beter so i should expect 25gpd @ 4:1, which would be just over a gph? Also could it pump water 8' from my room right to my fw tank, does it have enough pressure?

My unit has a 75 gpd membrane & I'd recommend that over a 100 gpd. You lose a few gpd production speed, but the 75 membrane has a better rejection rate, i.e. purer water from your RO stage before it feeds the DI stage. DI media & the membrane are the most costly to replace when the time comes, so it's to your advantage to go for the better rejection rate. I don't think there's a difference in the pure to waste ratio between the 75 and 100 gpd. There are ways to improve that ratio, but that's a whole 'nother topic.
8' line for the product water should be ok, provided it's a fairly horizontal run. If you're going up 8', head pressure could be an issue. The product water comes out at a fairly slow trickle.
