filter for e85 and tuning....

[Jammin'Trey]

Hey guys I just bought some precision 1000cc injectors, I already have a fuelab 515, walbro 255, dsmlink v2.5 running with ecmlink, innovate wb 02 hooked up to dsmlink....

I want to know what else i will need to use to run e85, what do I need to tune for with dsmlink to drive the car on e85... Not make power but drive sucessfully.... at 17psi (what I run on pump...). Or even 20 plus psi on my 14b. car is a 1999 gsx.

Thanks in advance, from what I can tell I need a steel micron filter instead and my afrs will be stoic at 9.5???

First off, I searched 'e85' and found 105 threads, a lot of them about tuning for it. Read some of those and I bet anything you can think of has already been answered. Example.

Buy another stock fuel filter, and plan on replacing the one currently on the car after a few tanks of e85, as it will probably clog up. After that, you should be fine for a while. I'm on a stock one, as are plenty of people, with no problems.

Start by adding 30% globally to your fuel, and then fine tune from there based on afr's. Most people shoot for 11.5-12:1 at WOT on e85.

Your afr's will read 14.7:1 stoich, as your gauge doesn't care what fuel you are using.
