It's absolutely worth switching, but there just aren't enough stations carrying it in some areas which sucks.

I make the switch once the red LOW FUEL light comes on. That is approx at 12 gals, so 2 still in the tank. Start it up, let it idle until it sounds different, then switch maps.

Now, if you are getting your car tuned, then you will want to run the tank dry, or simply wait until your 2nd tank of E85 and then get a tune.

What size injectors are you guys running for 550-600whp ? I have 1000cc now,And a few people said i should bump them up to 2100cc when switching to E85... What do you guys think.

And which brand injectors would you recommend -

You can make 600+ on 1350cc, you can make 700+ on 1600cc, on the 2150cc injectors I am at 70% dc and at 678whp on a dynojet.

The size of injectors depends on a few things. 1. How much boost? 2. What pump are you running?
