You just need a upgraded intake cam and opels to run full e85

You don't really need the injectors or the pump to run e85

What you would need is a fuel lobe cam and get e85 safe orings for your injectors.

I would just recommend you going with e47 all you would need is a tune and changing your injector orings wouldn't be a bad idea

And a tune. Factory turbo stick with e47. Less work as other have stated.
