Post Going on E85???

I have some issues on this. im trying to go E85 on my 2013 Evo X and idk exactly whats the list i need for this. I dont know if the 1000 CC injectors with the DW65 Fuel Pump so i can just swamp it out and have the 255 Walboro Pump Adapter and just finish with a tune.. Would this be a good set up and what brand of injectors do you guys recommend? the ID1300,ID1700 or the ID2000. not trying to go to crazy neither. Hope you guys can help me out in this.. Thanks Guys!!

Supporting Mods for E85:

3 port
fuel pump 255 or 450 Walbro or AEM 320 (green top)
ID 1200cc is ideal if your not trying to get to crazy with your power

That's pretty much it. (anyone, please correct me if I'm wrong)

I am running E85 on my 2015 Evo and I have ID1000 fuel injectors and a DW300c fuel pump (You should be fine with a DW65c or equivalent though). Both are direct fitment for the Evo. I can't imagine needing more fueling than that on the stock turbo.

No I'm not on E85 yet (on 91 making 345hp 357tq on a Dyno jet) but I spoke to my tuner and he advised me that is what is needed to go E85 and two of my buddies are on E85 with supporting mods and a few bolt ons.

one of them has a 3" intercooler, widemouth downpipe, intake, 3 port, fuel pump, fuel injectors, test pipe , exhaust, and is making roughly 387hp

I'm waiting to have all my parts to then go e85 and make around 500+

I went from 310/331 on 93 to 356/354 on E85. Stock intake and intercooler.

Sounds sweet! yeah well im trying to go on E85, but i dont want to buy the wrong set up and screw up anything that i might regret later on since i just bought the car

So your friend is running with stock intercooler, after market intake? fuel pump, injectors, test pipe, exhaust? is he's evo a 10?

Again, i just want to make sure i get the right parts for the E85 swamp so i wont go thriught any problems.

Downpipe, High Flow Cat, UICP, Fuel Injectors/Pump, 3 Port Boost Controller, stock intake with panel filter.

I went from stock directly to E85 so I can't compare to its drivability on pump gas. If you live where it gets cold in the winter you'll have to switch back to gas most likely. E85 fluctuates in my area anywhere from E80 to E90 this time of year, but much lower once it gets cold out. Too rich or too lean and you can knock.

The power is great but definitely more sensitive than running regular gas. Honestly, If I were you I would wait until true flex fuel is available. I believe Tephra V3 will have flex fuel compatibility and a company called Delicious Tuning is about to release flex fuel that will work through the Cobb AP. I can't wait for that lol, will make E85 so much easier.

If you plan to track the car get a Radium surge tank with Walbro 450 E85, fuel rail and ID 1700, because you need this or you'll have fuel starvation issues below 1/2 tank

If you don't plan to track it get this from WTF, and get ID 1700s:

Either way get a Walbro 450 and ID 1700s or you may have to do it twice, with this you'll be fine up to 550 WHP. And it's only a few hundred extra, don't cut corners on your fuel system
