Fueling for BBX Full on E85?

I'm looking at going E85 on my X with a BBX full that I currently have.

What would I need as far as fueling is concerned?

I currently have ID1000cc injectors and a Cobb Walbro 255lph fuel pump kit.

I was told a set of FIC 1100cc injectors and a Map FPR kit should be good and I've also been told that wouldn't be enough, will I need more fuel than this?

Any suggestions?

id do a bigger pump like a wally 400 (E85 version) and the FPR kit and you should be good cause you can bump your base pressure to flow the ID1000s a bit more

But can the E85 version of the walbro 400 also take 93 octane fuel? I'll be on pump 93 80% of the time

Yes. Pumps are only given a E85 rating if the seals inside can ALSO withstand E85 in addition to regular pump gas

Couldn't running a FPR Kit alone, in addition to my ID1000 and Walbro 255lph, get me the flow i need do E85 on my BBX turbo?

My ID1000 and Wally 255 maxed out at like 430WHP VD setting, 27psi on EF2.. had to taper boost past 5500 to be able to have safe AFR's
