Hi guys. Anyone knows what needs to be changed on fuel supply to be able to run E85? The car is already tuned and it has walbro 255 in tank and external fuel pump too. Do we need to change fuel lines to be able to cope with aggresive E85?

Yes, you need to change the fuel lines but that's where my knowledge ends. Speak to Midlands Car Servicing, FC Performance or FCSS as they should be able to advise you.

OK thanks.I see that you are using EMU standalone.Are you using original ignition coils or some aftermarket?Or is it possible to use for example VAG coils on original fuel injection or you have to have standalone?

You need compatible pump and fuel injectors. However, E85 requires a new ecu calibration as the fuel demands compared to gasoline are a lot greater, circa 30-40%.
