Re: Quick questin about e85

ID's are well worth the investment. I've never had any regrets or complaints with them. With that being said, RC injectors are also excellent as long as you stick with the saturated ones. They do tend to have OEM clips, which is nice.

E85 requires roughly 9cc for every 1hp.
Assuming you'll make about 250hp on E85, that's 63hp per injector, which multiplied by 9cc comes to 567cc.

I still think that's cutting it close, but this is a very basic formula. RCEng.com has a better calculator if you can learn how to use it properly.

An upgraded fuel pump doesn't increase the volume, it handles more volume. It isn't increasing your injector flow rate.

Alright I guess its time to start saving to get those injectors.. I was going to stick with rc but ID looks good! Thanks a lot guys for helping me out! Ill keep everyone posted as soon as I get the injectors and retune the motor! Hopefully Ill see see some gains for an additional 10-15whp 😁😁!
