SO it seems, with the new setup, The 70mm turbo has made my engine very thirsty. Currently i have the racetronix pump and rewire, to -6an ssbraided from pump to the logs with #80 injectors(e85). Fuel pressure rises up to 65 @ wot but eventually starts dropping to mid 40s at higher rpms. The afr stays the same always though. Anyone try a Boost a pump?
 


I will not be responsible for the destruction of your engine because 500whp 'isn't enough'
Bigger pump or I'm making you sign a waiver lol
 


I have a KB BAP I can sell you if you want to try it. Boost activated adjustable hobbs switch I believe $150 shipped. I got it from Ben Stiff - MNclubgp.
 
Thanks for the input. FoSHO i will let you know.
Im just not thrilled about the issue of always having to keep it above a quarter tank since it will no longer be a venturi setup. The nearest e85 station is about 25min up the interstate, not on my way to anything lol. so i tend to run it down pretty far.
 
I have the same issue where I am now. I bought a couple containers to fill up everytime I go to the station and just keep at home. Luckily there is a new station going up and most of that brand has put in E85 pumps with each new station so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

One of the problems with the little mini can was the fuel pump was sucking it dry before it could refill.

The boost a pump will do little to nothing to help you. Run either a dual pump or one big pump.

I have to disagree a little. I have a T67, 80lb injectors, Ractronix pump and rewire. When I went to E85. I ran out of fuel on the top end. Talking to Paul from PRJ, I bought the MSD Fuel Pump Voltage Booster (Same as BAP). Now my fuel is fine at WOT with the 20lbs of boost. I don't even have the FPVB set to max so I have room if I need it. I can run my tank to almost empty.

Here is a pic of it.
