larger fuel injectors
possible hose replacements depending on material.
anyone have recommendations for fuel injectors.
need to source ~30% more volume. resistance has to be same.
Will turbo injectors work -- are they the same resistance?
I've already found a DME solution.
thanks,

You are going to have to go to a stand alone engine management system to make that work.
The fuel pump should be ok. Depending on the application you may have to upgrade things but I would get it running and install a fuel pressure gauge first.

Turbo injectors are not the correct impedance. Newer, better injectors of larger size are readily available.
You don't need to mess with the fuel pump. Changing to a 3BAR FPR will suffice.
Hoses should be replaced anyways but more due to sheer age of them. New fuel hoses are designed to deal with alcohol fuels but you can specify to the hose guys you intend to use E85 and they can find an even better hose for you. I replaced all the rubber in my fuel system from tank to rail and back for the same purpose, I think I paid $40 out the door.
DME will work, but you will have to change the fueling to add more across the board at WOT...easy to do.
