500hp Evo 8
Im runnin 500 as well but I only have 1000cc.. My evo literally EATS GAS like no other. Do you have this problem, or should I think about looking for a leak somehwere? I mean I know that e85 burns quicker and I know its alot of boost, but its to the point where I dont even drive it that much because of the gas mileage. Thats part of the reason why I havent upgraded my injectors. I have an AMS fuel rail, but still on the stock pump. What do you think?
Thanks

Injectors all though they flow more will not affect gas mileage, its all in the tune. E85 cars are only going to get 15-18 mpg normal highway driving. Put your foot in it and kiss the fuel goodbye. 1000cc injector, 500whp, stock fuel pump and E85 sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. I am not an e85 expert by any means, I dont even run the stuff, I am sure someone else that knows a ton more then I do can chime in.

Yeah. Very true. I know that I need to get a tune, I've just sort of been holding off becauuse I have a bunch of parts I need to put on and I want to tune it accordingly. Thanks for the great advice though. I guess I was making a mountain out of a mole hill. Lol.
BC cams are junk.
Ground off center -- poor performance .. just not worth the hassle.
s2 or kelfords. Or if you really wanna step up -- BF272s

Hmmm all the #s and performance sheets I've seen in them seem pretty good and I run BCs in my 500hp Integra and the work great but I guess everyone has their opinion on how a cam should perform

I dont settle for second best. Maybe 2nd place is ok for your $.
- AMS 1000cc injectors
- Buschur racing upper intercooler pipe
- Buschur intake
- Buschur 3" full exhaust (straight pipe)
- Invidia exhaust manifold
- Test pipe (Buschur)
- GT3076R Vband kit
- Tial sport wastgate 38mm
- knock off boost controller
- Synapse bov
Things that amount to little or nothing:
- +1mm oversized valves
- BC 272's
Things that won't work:
- Walbro 255
I hope that helps.
