So the old motor was still in good working condition and never had any issues?
Battery in factory location?
Also if you do drive it again just for curiosity..... maybe ease into it or see if you can tell if its happening around a certain boost pressure point...
Fore and Lethal sells 10 micron stainless filters. I am running the Fore one myself. But ID is now recommending either Microglass or Cellulose with their injectors. FYIOK after searching around I now remember why I'm 40 micron. That's as small as they do in stainless steel. The only filters I find that are 10 micron are cellulose (paper). A google search finds endless results of them dissolving, gumming up or simply falling apart with long term usage in E85. That's why I run a stainless steel filter and live with 40 micron.
Still seems like it has to be a fuel issue IMO. I wonder if at some point you might have to bite the bullet and try a new set of injectors.

Are you sure about that? I've looked at Fore's website and it doesn't say what their stainless steel filters are down to but it does specifically say this.Fore and Lethal sells 10 micron stainless filters.

I also was running a cellulose 10 micron paper filter in my 04 and is still running a cellulose 10 micron paper filter to this day. Never once had an issue since 2009. Once the filter was in there with both E85 and gasoline for 2 years! No issues ever. So paper works fine.
Seems like now with ID's recommendations, the microglass might be the way to go.

Before I'd go this route I'd at least ship id1000 injectors back to manufacturer and let them test them.
Here is the aero microglass long filter. Part # 12639
I am getting ready to put the Marauder on the E85 and hoping I never have this goo problem. Cause like you I have the crusher intake. LOL
how ironic, I just swapped out the fuel filter yesterday and was texting Kevin the pics. It looked like it was brand new after 14 months (just like the other 4 times I've changed it).
BTW I compared the Fore "10" micron stainless steel element with my Aeromotive 40 micron today and side by side you can visually see how much finer the weave is on the Fore unit so it'll definitely trap smaller particles than my 40 but only down to around 26 according to Fore's site.
Just to verify, this is happening on ID1000's? I thought you were running the ID1300's the whole time reading this.
That's nice you have no issues with it. Did you by chance look inside the old filter? From what I've read it's the inside of the filter, the side that faces the injectors after fuel has passed through it, that gets all gummy and nasty first.
