Default Run an Aeromotive A1000 OR dual Walbro fuel pumps?

Hey guys, im switching over to E85 for my turbo set up. I know im going to def need bigger injectors and a fuel pump. What would be more cost effective or the better route to go? A1000? or dual walbro fuel pumps? I currently have a single Walbro.

Thanks in advance for input guys.

walbro 255 in the tank and a bosch 044 inline between the rail and filter. The a1000 if its a street car really should be running the voltage controller. your talking big money to run that setup between the pump and controller. not worth it to me

yes agreed money money money this is the route I went and would have preffered to go with dual bosh 044's, and ide still have more room on my setup to go.

The A1000, and the voltage regulator is a nice setup though I have had no issues at all on the street or track. I also run E85 with it.

do all pumps need a voltage regulator, such as the weldon or the dual 044's?

Not sure about the weldon but the bosch's run fullbore no problem. the aeromotives heatup when they get loaded up for a long period of time.

I never really understood how the Bosch pump between the rail and filter really worked... Do you mind to share? Any pics of the pump installed anyone? Thanks

The pump helps out the fuel pressure to keep it from dropping. Heres a pic of one install.
