ECU is nistune so map swapping isn't an issue (laptop in car)
However ive heard the max injector size you can run is 750's because of the injector latency?
Anyone able to shed some light on this? already aware that an aftermarket ecu is required for anything more than 350rwkw.
Want to have the fuel setup to support upto 400 - 450rwkw although i doubt the car will ever see it.
this would mean i would need:.
2x 044 bosch pumps
2x 1.5L surge tanks
1000cc - 1200cc injectors?.
Correct?
Also for those already making large power on e85, did you need to upgrade your fuel lines to something like 3/8" as opposed to the 1/4" line from factory?
I'd reccomend half inch lines for 350rwkw although it may not be needed I done mine just to be safe.. Why have 2 surge tanks, just use one 3-4L one.. t

And what about return? i take it one 1/2" return line would suffice?
And also is it worth having two fuel regs? (std vlt regs)

Its about volume not how much pressure you use.
