I'm ready for an E85 conversion! I've been told no less than 780cc on the injector size to nothing smaller than 950cc. I was planning on running the 950cc or 1000cc, just don't know where to get them? Are the ones from Slowboy racing any good? I know there are some concerns with their tuning ideas, but their products that they resale should be ok?
So, all I have to do now is put on the 9 turbo I have (thanks Lucas), the bigger fmic and injectors....Then tune!!!
By word of mouth I heard : e85 is now at Brirgate and Union here in Springs. Finally something far enough north for me.
It is there!! I actually went to the pump to make sure. I take the Union to Briargate route every morning to work. It makes it easier than getting regular gas when taking that route. Hopefully I will have everything done by the end of the month and they are going to love me at that station! LOL!

Setup a time with Justin to get on the dyno, install your turbo and IC the day before you get tuned, run wastegate spring pressure to the dyno, I have Precision 880's in stock when you get here, bolt those injectors on in 45 minutes, pour in some E-85 in your empty tank, let Justin tune her up and WALA! You will be boostin on some E-85! I would recommend that you get some ARP head studs also if you want to run more than 24psi.

Justin already put headstuds in the last time I was tuned. So, we are good to go! What if I brought the car up to have you guys do the install? Can you give me an idea of cost and pm me? I dont know if Justin ever mentioned why we didn't do the turbo install when I went to see him? I just remembered... he was going to talk to you about it.
It might be easier if I let the pros work on my car instead of me. LOL!
Sure, no problem. I am in Orlando @ the PRI show right now so I will get back to you next Monday with a quote. I might even pull my 880's off my IX if your interested in a used set with less than 500 miles on them. I am thinkin I need to step up to some 1000cc's for a little E-85 with my 3076R turbo and afraid I might max out those 880's which should be great for your IX turbo.
