Not gonna get ver far with 47s and e85
As long as you are just bolt ons i believe thats fine. The 47lb injectors should be enough. I would consult with whoever your tuner is as he will be able to give you the best advice.
car is lontbubes and a boss intake, still maxes 47s?
I think Shaun runs ID750s in his car with bolts for E85. I think 47s will handle stock but probably not much beyond that.
hes who Ill be contacting for the tune, coulda swore he was running the 47s, which is why I mentioned them : /
regardless, would my plan work? to be able to have two tunes stored and swap between the two?
I am running 47lb frpp injectors. Have plenty of fuel left on E85 with them. I just loaded my pump gas 47lb tune, went to fill up on E85, swapped to my E85 47lb injector tune and was all set to go. Car ran a little odd for the first 10-15 mins till the gas in the lines was gone and E85 ran through.
Definitely.
whats your duty cycle at?
also do you just run it close as possible to E? then fill up?
i've wondered this, also.
I run it until it says 0 miles to empty and then fill up with e85.
car run fine with the larger injectors and pump gas?
Yes it will run fine with larger injectors and pump gas as long as you have a tune for the bigger injectors.
Shaun requires 47's for his E85 tunes and they are never maxed out on the corn. Before any tunes are done for the 47's and corn, he tunes your car with the 47's and whatever other fuel you run so you have both tunes for both fuels. And there IS a gain with E85, it just depends on what other mods you have that would all be working together.. it makes no sense to me WHY people keep saying "there are no gains with E85 and these cars N/A" etc, because there IS a pretty good gain forthe $$.. No gains for JUST putting 47's in on gasoline probably. when you make the swith and start tuning for 47's you get a tune that you pump the gasoline out of your tank with, then you have ONLY E85 in it when you start tuning.

may have a set of 47s forsale here soon
OP, yes it will work just fine. You wont max out a set of 47's with NA and boltons with E85. Some people are running boltons and E85 on stock injectors, so 47's will be plenty. ALso, for what I have seen you'll get another 15-20whp depending on supporting mods with the corn. Good luck and get some before and after dyno pulls to post up so we can see the gains.
