Injectors for E85

Thinking of doing a dual map tune for 91 (91 cause there isn't 93 in Vegas) and E85. What are the minimum injectors I would need to run E85?

Stock turbo you'll want 1000cc injectors minimum. A good injector is the FIC 1100cc Hi-Z injector. It'll give you some head room and make up to about 480whp on E85 per mrfred on here.

I got away with maxing out a 9 turbo on e82-83 with a 300lph pump and fic 850cc injectors I was about 95% duty cycle but it worked.


I switched out to 1250's so when I get a red I wont need to upgrade right away.


What turbo do you planning on using?

FIC 1120cc low-z's work well and are cheap. I'm at 450whp on them

There are FIC 1100cc Hi-Z's in the for sale section right now for I think $480 shipped. Perfect injector for your power goals.

more consistent and better drivability for high-z. the gap is perhaps not too large at the 1000 cc/min size, but its there. i loved my fic1100s.
