Depends on the injectors, but I'd hazard to guess you'd need to go even BIGGER. I dont know how close we are to maxing out the stock injectors with only basic breathing mods off hand, but I doubt any FI kits are going to come with HUGE injectors - just enough to handle the max HP of the kit. Whereas with an E85 setup, you'd need injectors 30% bigger than THAT, really.

Also, cant forget the fuel pump...one that can at least keep up w/ those injectors...
