Shed some light?

hey guys hopefully someone can shed some light on my question.
currently i have a TBE, AMS FMiC + U&LICP and a Walbro 255 on my VIII. Looking to get tuned by the end of the month but curious if i should upgrade my injectors? From what i've read i SHOULD especially if i plan on going E85(which i do) but I'm clueless as to which size injectors to get.. I've looked at the charts MellonRacing and others have put up but i'm still having a tough time deciding what size to get. I'm looking to be at 350whp because i DD to school and work almost every day so it needs to be somewhat tamed and if I'm missing something like larger fuel rail etc.etc please let me know. thank you guys.

going e85 is pretty simple not much really needed but you will need to spend alittle coin. as far as injectors go dont be like me and end up buying 2 sets just get some FIC 1450cc and call it a day it will handle alot on e85 or pump. Buy them from Mellon racing like i did for mine he will cut you a sweat deal tell him rockmanx sent you. here is what you need to buy

1. larger fuel injectors 1450cc dont bother going any smaller then this
2. double pumper or you can pass by with that new DW fuel pump. a regular walbro 255 is not enough(yes there are people doing it with this but dont be like them upgrade)
3. retune of course this is required for changing your gas typed.
4. the stock fuel rail is more then enough. I changed mine for flavor and to make the area look better but not required by any means.
5. Map switcher you can wire the toggle to the intercooler sprayer button if you have one that way you can switch form e85 to pump
