Hey guys lets get this going, what all is needed to run E85? Keep in mind im on a 3.5 pulley right now.

Is it really as simple as say 60# injectors and a tune?

LMK as im making this swap!
 




Re: Big bad E85 thread

Custom tune, Wideband o2 sensor, 60lbs fuel injectors, 2 new fuel filter, pump rewire and maybe even a new pump.

Along with lots and lots of time to get the tune down. You'll have to change injector data and re-do alot of other stuff for getting WOT tuning down.

Anything that has Value is not easily gained...

You must give effort to obtain the enlightened path!

I had my car converted and running on e85 in under an hour and for around $200. Stock fuel pump stock wiring, cheap used 60# injectors and a new fuel filter. I already had the DHP though....
 
You will be completely fine with a set of injectors and a tune. Stock pump starts to run into problems on E85 around 300whp, but you will be no where near that.
 
you wont even need a tune if you got 42# injectors...

Tuning 60s for E85 is pretty simple... Takes at most 10 minutes from stock to fully tuned.
 
I would get a wideband and 42.5's. Then drop a couple pulleys. If you like it, then go further as to get a tune, bigger injectors and racetronix fp and rewire at the least. As long as you're careful about it and not leaning the hell out of it you should be fine with the ethanol.
 


I wouldnt even get a wideband... 42s, a scanner (watch narrowband numbers) and a 3.2 pulley should give some good results.
