    One thing I didn't see in this sticky is which injectors to use for E85 with a turbo. I have 42's already but the turbo is going on within the next few months and don't want to buy the wrong ones.

    80s minimum, and you'll need a pump to keep up.

    42s are probably a tad small for turbo unless you have very low power goals. 60lb injectors can take you to 500 and beyond on e85.

    That would depend a lot on the setup. My car would not be able to make 500 on e85
