July 21, 201511 yr #1 I have a 393rwkw set up on 98 Fuel , my car has a Plazmaman surge with single 044 and ID1000 injectors and a 400 LPH intank pump and standard fuel rail and reg , I know I need a walbro 460 E85 compatible pump in the main tank but what else do I need to change or add to allow my car to be tuned for E85 ... Cheers
July 21, 201511 yr #2 Why do you think you need to swap the intank? I would be changing the single 044 first

July 21, 201511 yr #4 Author Don't you have to change the intake pump to a e85 compatible one or is the 400 LPH one I have in there ok for e85 ?????
July 21, 201511 yr #5 The one you have is too big as a lift pump to start with but its not the end of the world.A DW200 would suffice and be E85 compliant if you are going to change to something better suited in a few areas..
July 21, 201511 yr #7 Yes mate exact same fitment as a 255 Walbro yet its E85 safe....they make a 265ltr one also.The lift pump for surge tank need not flow huge amounts no point heating up fuel more and pressurizing the surge tank beyond what's intended.
July 21, 201511 yr #8 Have you had a walbro 255 fail from e85? I was under the impression they were OK ( not rated but OK to use). Let's assume your aiming for 450rwkw, if I was you I would fit either another 044, or a different style pump. Look at the nizpro pump or similar. (Maybe even sell your setup and go for a pw twin pump surge)Either way your standard reg will be past it's limit so you will need a fpr1200 or equivalent plumed up to the end of the stock rail. (Remove the stock reg and replace with a joiner) Again different if you go the pw option.With that size intank and two 044's you may have trouble reaching the 4 bar base anyway. ( often not a huge issue)I'm sure someone will shoot my setup down but ehh.
July 21, 201511 yr #9 Author Ok so if I go a PW duel pump surge and a reg fitting kit to my standard rail and a DW200 in the tank than that will be suitable to get the E85 tune ?????
July 21, 201511 yr #10 Best to confirm with tuner....everyone can give opinions but the guy tuning the thing SHOULD know whats best...if they are any good
