Injectors for running e-85

Well I am having some confusion as to which type of injectors I can run for e85. I was told to run fic 1050s, but a credible source told me they wont last long. Im going to be running stock 9 turbo at 28psi. Are those injectors fine to run or will they get destroyed fast and not last as long as compared to lets say the blue-max. Thanks for any input.

fic1050s are fully compatible with e85. so are the fic1100s and the bluemax series. the fic1050s do have some history of warm start issues. i don't know if fic ever fully resolved the issue. i suggest that if you want to buy them that you purchase directly from fic and ask if they have completely fixed the warm start issue on evos. the fic1100s have no history of warm start issues but are more expensive.

my vote would be a fic bluemax 1250cc injector. i have driven on them personally and it will give you some leg room for future as well. the 1550 drive like stock also on e85, but if you never plan on flowing what they are capable of it wouldn't be in your benefit to buy them.

I agree Tom. I told the OP to go 1250s. They are great injectors and I like the BluMax personally for E85.
