Default E-85 Fuel System

Hi all,
Looking to put an A&A/ECS blower on in a year or so and would like to go E85. I want to over build the fuel system to support 750 rwhp.

The car (02 Z) has A Racetronix pump with the upgraded harness up to the alternator with FMS 42lb green tops.

I would like to use a dual internal pump setup, but I've seen the pricing, and if I could get away with an external boost referenced pump I suppose I would.

Any help or experience?

Thx,
Mike

Lots of options.


1. Surge Tank setup. Your current pump will keep a surge tank filled, with a much larger pump(s) being fed by the surge tank.


2. Convert to external pump completely. You may need a sump, or a fuel cell.


3. Make your own dual internal setup to save $. Most of the automotive world doesn't rely on bolt in kits, you don't have to either.


For fuel injectors at 750whp+ on E85, you'll want 120 lb/hr or larger.
Btw, pumps aren't boost referenced (unless its a closed loop PWM system). Regulators are.

Our stg 1 E85 system can handle that just fine. I would just need to know your year to give you an exact price, PM or email us. We can also put together a whole package price for you on everything you would need start to finish. It's much easier for us to sell below MAP pricing that way.

Simple yet effective.

Doug, sent you a pm.

Not sure why this got moved to scan and tune, this thread refers to a hardware change to support a blower install.
