255 may not be enough pump if your plans change in any way. Since 340+ pumps are so cheap these days, might as well just go to the bigger one while you're at it. I'd also go with a name-brand intercooler kit (read: American or Japanese) to make sure that it won't hold you back in the future, too.

With my 05 MR, I made 405whp and 355wtq on 93 oct @27 psi.. As long as you have a free-flowing exhaust, injectors + pump, piping+ intercooler, a light cam, and a good tune (basic bolt ons), you should easily be able to make 400whp on e85 with a stock 9 turbo. If you want to make 400whp on pump, gonna have to get a bigger turbo.
My mods are:
- GSC S1 cams
- 73hta fp green turbo w ported mhi hotside
- 3" ETS FMIC
- ETS UICP & LICP
- ETS INTAKE
- 255 walbro
- 1000cc FIC injectors
- JMFab exhaust manifold
- MAP o2 housing
- Greddy TIC catback
- Test pipe
- grimmspeed ebcs
- spoolinup COP
- Omni 4 bar map sensor

Whats the difference in the Forced Performance "FP54 Green" vs. Forced Performance "GREEN 73HTZ"? theres so many drop down options at extremepsi.
I'm FBO stock block and dyno at 398whp with e85 on a mustang 10 years ago. Now looking to upgrade turbo.

I never post but my setup is pretty close to what people are saying. I have an evo that is decently modified. My mods close to what people are saying. It makes 425whp/ 340 tq. but it does it using 92~93 pump gas also on lower boost. 24.4 - 24.5 psi. The mods I do have are fairly easy to get.
gsc s2 cams + springs and retainers
fp green 73hta
fp exhaust manifold
map o2 dump
ets 3.5 fmic + 2.5 ic piping
950 fic fuel injectors
3' dp
3.5 cat back
aem truboost
act hdss clutch
walbro 255 fuel pump
There might be more but these are my performance. Hope this helps. I have been told this setup with e85 will make 550 whp easy.
