Looked closer and found that the Bottom seal on top of the injector was cracked and half gone so it wasn't getting a good 'snug fit' in the manifold when you tightened down the fuel rail mounting bolts.
Ran out of time to do another boost leak test so will do that tomorrow and check everything out again.
Quick question-How does a stock 8 DV hold up to 30 psi??

'05's were the worst when it came to throttle body seals, lol mine were barely there. They rob you of alot of power when they're leaking.
As far as your spark issue, I see your mod list is close to mild but why don't you give the bpr8es 1 step colder plugs a try?
From what I've read e85 is a little more sensitive to pre-ignition.

Boost leak test today went well. pressure tested it to 30 psi and all was good.
Synapse Dv had a broken seal in the flange where the UICP hose comes and connects with it. Replaced that and holds like a champ! Driveability actually is about the same. No part throttle surge. Just al ot louder than the plastic piece
