Converting to E85?
Converting to E85?
I was thinking about switching to E85 but have a few questions. What all would i need to change over i already have a walboro 255 and RC750 injectors. would they be fine or would i need larger injectors? Also would a stand alone be needed or could i get by without one?
I switched to e85 a while ago and I love it , you'll need at least 1200cc injectors if your running a stock turbo/fp green/fp red if you go with a bigger framed turbo like a 35r ect ....you'll need 1600cc injectors , bigger fuel rail , and two walbro's inside the tank (buschur double pumper or full blown both are good) that's basically it , you can go with bigger lines for more volume but you don't really need them.
if your staying stock 9 turbo, i think 1000's would be alright, with a single pump. But if your going to be running a bigger turbo, or looking for more than mid 400's you might want to look at 1250's or slightly larger and the double pumper mentioned above.
it all depends on your mods, boost, and future plans.

I would like to have 500 at the wheels thats my goal. So a standalone is not needed? I talked to a shop about tuning it and they were talking like i would need a standalone to tune weather or not i converted to Corn Juice. Sorry for all these questions im a new-B
honestly i dont think you will need a standalone, plenty of people making 500+ on stock ecu, especially with SD and the advancements in ECUFlash unless you decide to do some crazy Hp youll be fine.

Sweet thats good to know. So basicly all i really need is bigger injectors and another fuelpump? what would be the best injectors and best fuelpump? Can i just get another walboro 255 cuz i already have one? Or would i need to get a diff one?
For your 30R on E85 and 500+whp you'll need a second pump and more like 1450s. The FIC1450 fits the bill nicely. A stock ECU can be used to make as much power as you'll ever need/want whether you use the stock MAF or go to speed density on the stock computer.
If you were on a IX turbo (thought I saw that mentioned) you will max 1000s and one pump around 460whp. I have made 475-480 at 83% IDC with 1200s and one 255 so thats almost all the way there.
