e85 set up
no on same boost level the car would make more on e85, IF however the duty cycle of the fuel system dont max out meaning you would actually have to lower boost, thus making the car make less or the same power. e85 roughly burns up (I believe dont qoute me) 30% more fuel. it consumes more to do the same job. so maybe at 13 psi you are at 85% duty cycle on pump gas, where as on e85 you may be at 100% duty cycle at 11 psi. not saying you are but but just assumeing. so on 13 pump u made 435 and on 11 you may make 435 on e85. if you could go 13 psi on e85 and the fuel system wasnt peaked then yes you would make more power. if I confused you then sorry
at 13 psi on 93 car made 447, on 13 psi on c85 car made 521. end results were 589 on 93 at 19 psi 20 degrees of timeing, then on c85 818 at 28 psi only 11 degrees of timeing. and yes although i blew the engines in between the Compression ratios remaind the same from the two builds
if your car is fine now, and you're not going to be changing the boost levels to make more power than just changing the timing a bit i don't really see it being very cost effective to switch.
you should still be fine with your injectors and fuel pump. your base fuel pressure will change from 43 to 90+
