Hey guys, so I am about to spend 18k on my first evo. I read that everyone says get a stock one and build it and you will apreciate it more but I can't find what I want. What I did find meets most of my criteria.The car is a 2003 bby 30k miles sunroof and tastefully modded.

Buscher stage 3 short block, 6262 turbo, aem series 1, ets 4", much more. I am looking to get it tuned to e85 eventually. Right now it's on 91 with precision 1200s.

My questions are

1. Do I need bigger injectors for e85...this car is able and will produce around 600awhp.
2. Is it safe to drive for a while on 91. It is currently tuned for 91 but I hate 91 octane...just dangerous with knock.

 

1200 is the minimum for E85 but it should be fine.
91 is safe, especially if it's tuned on it. Just don't raise the boost and you'll be fine.

 

with a big turbo like that, to run what it can reach on e85 you will likely need an upgraded fuel rail, fuel pump (buschur dbl pumper or walbro 400/450), and injectors (FIC 2150's). then a tune of course.

 

I'm no expert but I don't think 1200's are big enough to run E85 on that set up.

 

It has the buscher double and a Perrin fuel raill

 

then there's not much more you have to do. 1200cc injectors wont support e85 on that turbo though. i say 2150's so you'll never have to upgrade again if you choose to go bigger.

ask sum1 w/ more experience...but you might need to upgrade fuel lines also? not sure if you need to upgrade the feed/return lines or not

 

That's the plan....where to buy fic 2150s now?

 

Just get it drive it around on e85 till it no longer feels fast then get tuned on e85. get a dp and a fic 2150 and your good to go

 

R u serious or? And .....noob question dp(down pipe)?

 

I think he probably meant double pumper.

Nice setup man, good luck with the car, and most importantly respect the power

And for dp I'm pretty sure he was reffering to the BR double pumper you apparently already have.

 

Yeah..thanks guys pretty excited to get into the evo world....I've driven my cousins 670awhp evo many times.....it's such a rush!!! When it was 450awhp I ran an 11.8.

 

I mean on 91 till it feels slow. sorry dp Double Pump

 

Anyone heard of a built engine running like crap with a/c? I guess this car ran like crap after built with a/c, so they removed it. My plan is to install a/c again and have it tuned with it.

 

PM'd. Your cousin needed to give you my number long ago -_-. Slap him for me
