This is mainly my reason for trying it. My injectors are in the 80s so I may not have enough, does E85 take a lot more fuel? I do plan on upgrading the pulley but I'm going to wait for it to come with the upgrade kit from Stillen.

You will absolutely need larger injectors or your motor will run lean and....boom.

I have some ID1000's for sale. Lol.

Oh yeah. If you're even in the neighborhood of maxing out your injectors, budget new ones into the plan. You need what, 30% more E85 than pump gas?

30% seems to be the standard. But I was running 1000's on E with 500+to the wheels without a return system.
