I have ID1000s with a VMP BAP. Whats the most cost effective way to go e85 with the power Im making? Really like to squeeze as much HP I can out of this setup. Im probably gonna go back to the 82mm pulley and spray a 50-75 shot in it. E85 would be alot safer and a hell of alot cheaper than 100oct. Any ideas?
Whats the cheapest way to go e85?

not sure how taxed your fuel system is but i think you can go e85 with just a tune. if your fuel system is on the edge then you might have to go with an upgraded fuel system. if you have a local tuner id talk with them to get a better idea. but with the setup you have id just go ahead and get a full return style setup.
The cheapest way to get into an E85 setup would be our budget E85 fuel system.
For someone looking to stick with a TVS it should work just fine for whatever power you'll throw at it

Do a stand alone fuel system for the nos and run meth in that system. Over jet the fuel side and the ecu will pull the pump gas out
Did you talk with Justin I am running E85 now. I heard the best upgrade is the JPC Budget fuel sys which some one already said. I am running a 79 mm and I am seeing 24* to 25* timing. E85 is much safer. I might upgrade to the JPC system in the fall now I am just enjoying the ride.
Do you have any install instructions on your site for this kit?
The BAP is really just a band aid and they seem to fry pumps eventually anyway. Go with a return system if you want to go for moderate/high power.
You've invesyed a lot of $ into the car/setup now you want to go "budget"?
Holy shit $1500 is a budget fuel system? :shrug: I could have swore I had seen a low end fore system for $1200ish.
Maybe it was the on3 return setup lol.
Zona, can you explain why you think E85 is safer? I ask because we always run the engine so much more maxed out on E85 with the boost headroom, resistance to detonation, etc.. so that when we are done its making 20% more HP - at that point is it really safer?
we have some budget fuel systems at really good prices for the forum guys!!
hit us up!

Anyone ran the on3 return system yet? Two 320lph pumps in a triple hat. Probably aeromotive pumps rebadged to on3. Only thing that sucks at first glance is you have to run it with an aftermarket fuel rail (idiotic).
When is the last time you heard of a BAP frying someones fuel pump. I ran a Kenne Belle on my car for 2+ years with no issues on the 47lb injectors. BAP is not the correct way but its effective if you dont wanna do it the right way upgrade the fuel pump. I just recently removed it because i finally got me a set of ID 1000 and didnt need it anymore. The budget fuel system ill probably do one day but nothing wrong with running a BAP.
I'm sure it happens but it's not a common thing. Even then you don't really know if it was the pump that just flat failed or if the BAP really killed it or not. Pumps can break on their own too.
Maybe I'm a scaredy cat but if a BAP + ID1000 setup will get you 650 I wouldn't go any further than that without building the engine anyway.

+1 Anything past 650 and you are living on borrowed time. I have no desire to stick a rod out my block. That might be a little hard to get covered under the factory warranty.
if you actually log yoru f/p on e85 with a power adder, you will see that the pressure drops quite a large amount on the bap.
the larger id1000s help maintain the a/f, but not the optimal way to go. our stage 1 e85 system is one of the most popular items we sell for power adder guys

This is true. Having said that I do run a Bap and e85.
I think "safer" is a relative term. I meant it is safer because it is more stable and less likely to have a detonation problem. It seems a lot of the motors that are blown are due to detonation problems. Granted when hitting high HP on a stock motor who knows?

Once you add the supercharger/turbo the warranty is pretty much gone anyway so hopefully you know the risk when building up your motor
