Edit nevermind I was thinking the stock injectors were 440cc but I believe they are actually like 310cc so injectors would be pretty much for certain, sorry.
Yeah the stock injectors run out of fuel right around 350whp, for FI e85 I would say to go with a stealth or aem e85 pump minimum if you plan to be over 500hp the 255 in all the FI kits will be running hard on alcohol at that point.

Agreed, a big pump is a must for a boosted e85 370z. I was only thinking of all-motor use when I said I think a stock pump would be good-to-go for E85.
