E-85, what other supporting mods will help me reach 400 whp?
Hello there, I have a IX with the mods in my sig, and I was going to get a Buschur FMIC and get it retuned by Buschur, but the more and more I read about E85, the better it sounds..... So I'm considering just doing the E85 injectors/pump/tune route, and get the little switch I've read about to switch between my current map/E85 map...

But do you think it'll get me close to 400 whp? I want to keep the car reliable, so I don't want to go any higher then 400 at this point, but I think E85 is still a pretty reliable source of power and I can do without cams and **** like that....

thoughts?

probably 750's, but I think it's probably best the Buschur decides that for me.

If you are going to run E85 you will need larger then 750's. Get some 1000's and a walbro FP

Well like I said, I plan on keeping it somewhat reliable, so between 26-28 psi, but I'd say closer to 26 ideally.

there's no way he'd get close to 400 whp without E85 on just those mods. Alot of VIII's with FP Green's are only making a little over 400 whp, so E85 and he'll be set..... me too!
