So I'm going to go the corn fuel route for a bunch of reasons and need to know what I need to do to prepare. So far I have:

-Fuel pump. Currently running a Walbro 255lph. Do I need to go higher?

-Injectors. Currently have Bosch 645cc. Do I need to bump those too?

-Fuel return system. Do I need one? If I do, what's the difference between the AAM system and the Concept Z system (other than the $200 price difference)?

-Hill's will handle the extra tune map that I'll need.

-Have a handy app on my phone that shows me where all of the corn fuel stations are around here so I won't run out of gas

What can I expect in terms of HP/Tq bump? What else do I need?
