I would get an eprom ECU (if yours isn't) and a chip burner instead of messing around with the fuel lines. The stock lines and filter work no problem with E85. The eprom is almost a necessity, and the fuel lines won't help you at all until you go with a much bigger turbo. For how cheap a chip burner is ($85), I don't see why everyone with a DSM doesn't have one. It's actually easier to tune with than a piggyback anyways. Set the injector size compensation and your close right off the bat.

If you start getting a little lean on boost, you probably just need a new fuel filter -- E85 cleans the tank and lines out so all the crap will end up in the filter. I have actually never changed the filter on my 98 GSX since I got it like 2.5 years or so ago and it's still working great. It seems like everyone who hasn't used E85 themselves thinks you absolutely require 1000-1600cc injectors, huge lines, and maybe even 2 pumps but thats not really the case.
