For everyone else, I sucessfully changed the car over to E85 today. Was actually quite easy...little bit of street tuning and shes spot on. Injector duty cycle is at 95% at about 5400rpms (thats with 42# injectors). Still room for improvment but honestly that was skeptically easy?
You should change those injectors over to 60 lbers with your level of boost.

if you re-tune it. with e85 you run about 30% more over what a regular gasoline car does
