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


This spools faster? I was always under the impression that e85 will lessen the power of a vehicle. I guess that only applies to NA cars though.
