E85
I have an E force Stingray and was thinking of doing the HPFP and Zo6 injectors as well as the low side. I was curious if I did those mods would I have enough fueling to support E85?

A flex fuel sensor is a good option to mix some e content into the car and get most of the benefits from running full e85. Without taxing the fuel system completely.

For testing, I ran boost at 7, 10, 12, 15psi. In the last setting the injectors tapped. My intent was to switch from e85 to race fuel for the track, but never got around to it. Through the a8 at those boost levels I went from 700whp-800whp.
Since then I dropped to 10psi and will drop back to 7psi tomorrow. It’s just no fun when I can never smash the go pedal.
I am about to have the exact same setup on my Vette. The only difference is, I am not planning the voltage booster and not upgrading the in-tank pump. I figure the Vette will probably run closer to 650whp. I just don’t know where the stock Vette in-tank pump will tap out. I may add the DSX system for safety and then if I want to up the boost I can.
