Phunk is your entry return system (S0 or S1, can't remember the numbering off the top of my head) enough for a e85 return set up or would you recommend something more?

FYI...I wouldn't be looking at e85 for a ton more power but to give me safety on the 500-500whp I'd like to run.

im running automotive 485lph fuel pump, cjm stage 0 return fuel setup and 1000 id injectors

my only problem is i still have most of my water/meth kit still hooked up from when i had the stillen. and i am thinking should i just rewire the water/meth kit back in to work with the turbo or just remove it and go fuel e85 ( closes station is 20mins away)

The S1 kit will do about 600rwhp Dynojet with E85 with the Aeromotive pump and 1000cc injectors (maybe more?) pending everything else. It can be a little different from car to car. The higher boost pressure you need to make your power, the earlier you will max-out the fuel system setup (this is due to pressure differentials and pumps reduced output at higher operating pressures)... also the more conservative your tuning is, same thing.

The 370z is super sensitive to this stuff as 1 psi can be 30-40hp and 1 degree of timing can be 20hp. So imagine that a guy running 2-3 degrees more timing can make a lot more power on the same fuel volume.

But until I swapped to my S2-SE fuel system a couple months back, I was running a one-off setup that was lesser than my S1 kit, and I made 586rwhp at 9psi E85, and used to run a little more boost on the street. So I know its good for it.
