Should easily break 500hp with that turbo and E85, long as you have a good tuner.

It should be a pretty easy goal then, what range of hp could I be looking at? Any other sugestions for the build you might have to add?

I'm an Evo newb but have been doing a lot of reading for my build and from everything I've read you may want to consider a dual 255 fuel pump setup or a single 400lph. I'm currently running 1000cc injectors and was told I needed to go bigger for e85. At a min 1250cc for 500hp. This is just what I've been told recently.

I know I am looking at putting down a little over 600 and my current setup with E85 is ID 2000's and a BR double pumper just for reference

Things to consider would be: Coil On Plug (Spoolin' Up COP), Double Pumper (Buschur), Ported Intake Manifold (Buschur), Ported Throttle Body (Buschur), Larger Injectors for E85 (at least 1200cc), Oil Catch Can

Just got off the phone with Insane Speed in Las Vegas, NV and they pretty much has said the same thing about the fuel pump and injectors.

For the clutch I picked a RPS 6-puck clutch and RPS pressure plate that estimated 600hp capability.

Also has anyone had any thoughts about the 3076?

I currently have 500hp on my setup and a few things you might want to consider for your set-up are bigger injectors at least 1200cc and bigger fuel pump for e85, I would also consider maybe a different set of cams and a good clutch.

Im runnin 500 as well but I only have 1000cc.. My evo literally EATS GAS like no other. Do you have this problem, or should I think about looking for a leak somehwere? I mean I know that e85 burns quicker and I know its alot of boost, but its to the point where I dont even drive it that much because of the gas mileage. Thats part of the reason why I havent upgraded my injectors. I have an AMS fuel rail, but still on the stock pump. What do you think?
Thanks

Random question on your id1000s did you have to use the top hat spacers or do they just fit as is ?
