Default E85 with a Stillen supercharger?

You need at the bare minimum:
-1000cc injectors
-320+ lph fuel pump
-full fuel return system
-a talented tuner who will have to write your maps from scratch

It's a huge pita and probably not worth it for SC applications. Makes more sense for turbos but I'm super stubborn. If you want to see the pain I went through trying to get this done, check out my build thread.

For reference I am using:
AEM 320lph fuel pump
Injector Dynamics 1000cc injectors
CJMptorsports stage 1.0 fuel return system

My final tune will be 10/15 and will post my dyno sheet results. I am shooting for ~530whp or so.

Edit: Let me tell you about how fun it was to load up four 5 gallon containers with E85 and haul them to my tuner...

Well off-topic, but I am taking my race car to Philip Island tomorrow for a test day (been chasing a drive-line vibration for 2 meetings now) and my car uses 4 litres/lap (4.5km per lap), and the test plan for the day calls for 5 sessions of an out lap, 4 timed laps and an in lap, so I am expecting to use 80-100 litres, which is 5 20-litre tins (no E85 offered at the circuit fuel dump), so I understand your point precisely.

E85 is great for making good power and keeping the engine cool, but f4rk you use a lot of it !!!
