fuel delivery?

So heres my dilemma. I have an fp red setup with kelford cams,full Bolton's with all the strengthening features besides the block etc... im tuning in e85 and shooting for 475-500whp while keeping tq down. my intended tuner told me to stick with my installed 255 wally and go with 1450 fic injectors. But those are still in box until my tune.
Now I've heard a lot of guys run the same fuel setup and hit 500hp. But now my tuner has completely bailed and stood me up twice in the process. And now one of the tuners I contacted said to ditch the 255 and go bigger. And he said the 1450s are very iffy when it comes to getting them dialed in rite. Does anyone have experience with this fuel setup? I'd really like to keep my setup as is cuz I've been waiting forever for a tune and don't want to change if I don't have to.
Thanxx for your time.

First and foremost, find a new tuner.

Did u read my post? And a double Pumper would work but it is an old school answer. Guys hit 500whp all day running single pumps.

As in find a different tuner that is telling me to ditch my current fuel setup? Cuz That's what I'm doing. I already moved on from my first no show tuner of course. And I'm gonna post all over who he is and how bad he is.

you will burn out that single wally on E85 at 500. i never said you couldnt reach 500 on a 255, but you need a fail safe. thats why i suggested double pumper and bigger inj. especially with an fp red.

+1 You're really pushing that pump. I would do the double pumper to be safe. Or maybe even one of the deatschwerks dw300 pumps.

^^ im tuning with tscomp now, and i was on a single modded wally with fic 1250's, we made 530whp with extremely high duty cycles from wat i was told, im also running an fp black. i would say if ur cool with like 490-500whp, the modded walbro will b fine. but like stated, if u want nemore power at all u need to do a double pumper or another drop in option. i did the double pumper becuz im not gonna run outta fuel for quit sum time and for wat u get its really not THAT expensive. I got the buschur DP btw.

Don't do a double pumper. Buy a -6AN fuel line with fittings and the STM -AN fuel rail inlet adapter and install it. Everyone on this site thinks that using a double pumper is the way to go but a simple fuel line would work much better without over running the stock FPR. A double pumper is $500+ while a new fuel line is $150.
