My goal is 500whp on e85 on a elm and a 3076r turbo.

Help me out here. Before I pull the trigger and start buying parts. I want to know what I should use.

I do not want to put in head studs. I just want to do dual springs and ti retainers.

Is this going to be reliable as my 425whp 93oct setup ?

Does e85 rid longevity of our motors in any way ?

I want to use ID1000cc injectors. And a dual pump setup.

Will 1000 take me to 500hp?

Any input from you guys ? I would like to stay away from a bigger turbo and away from head studs. I'm running an AFI TURBO KIT

I've used more ethanol and tuned more ethanol than I care to remember over the years. If you need any help feel free to ask.

You don't need head studs for 500whp but it's good insurance.

500whp on ethanol is as reliable as you make it. So if it's setup and tuned right, yes.

No, E85 does not lessen longevity as long as it's maintained correctly.

It depends what fuel pumps you use but the ID1000's at the right base pressure should make 500whp no problem.

The 6262 would be more than enough for 500whp. Backpressure will not be an issue.

I'm running e85, 900cc FIC injectors, 70psi fuel pressure, 255 inline & 340 intank; 6000miles on my set-up & the only problem I have is the "cold startup issue with AEM and e85. Otherwise it's problem free. You will have go through a tank of e85 in 165-185 miles. I made 490hp with a log manifold with a very conservative tune.
