Main requirements to run E-85 are a very high flow fuel system since it takes 25% to 30% higher fuel flow for the same amount of air compared to strait gasoline, and an air fuel tuning method to adjust fuel flow without adverse effects on your timing curve.

Just curious, did you have problems with the evo running/ starting in the winter when it got cold? I've been running my Eclipse on it for the past 4 months, but now it's getting cold and seems to hate life (issues with starting)
But yuh, the dummy answer is larger fuel pump and larger injectors. I went up from 650s to 750s for enough flow (single evo3 16g- dsm). It makes a huge difference with spooltime as well
