It requires nothing but a tune on an LNF. You can upgrade the injector combustion seals to black 2010+ design if you want or wait until the non-e85 white ones you most likely have fail. I ran my white ones on e85 for about 10k miles before one failed.

so basically throw in some '10 injector seals and add it to the tune and I'm good to go? sweet...

side note flow rate of stock injectors is?

Yes

Not enough to run full e85 almost all run half 93 (e47) for two main reasons straight e has horrible mileage and most end up running out of fuel b.c. It takes a higher volume of e85 to make power but if you have corn fuel close by do it you
Will make more power with e47 and a good tune

eh just another thing to consider in the effort to gain power without a complete engine/turbo overhaul

Make more power on corn bc it has a higher octane rating than gasoline meaning you can run higher cylinder pressure thru more timing and the like while still resisting knock

your going to run out of a fuel on the stock injection system no if ands or buttss...... on a stock turbo your best bet is to go e47 because with full e85 you will run out on top.

a 5th injector is needed to help deliver the fuel. also i recommend doing the newer viton seals right away dont bother waiting till a part fails. thats stupid logic imho when you know its going to crap out sooner or later. the injector seals are not like your typical mpfi seals either. DI seals need to be sized and require a special tool to do so. just some fyi.
