Message 740cc injectors will limit you to about 500whp. You will need a new fuel pump as the stock is not ethanol compatable (walbro 485 or hellcat), easy install and affordable. Stock lines are fine if they are in good shape, don't listen to all the nonsense about corrosion and moisture, it has been widely debunked. SZ map switcher is the easiest way to do it, it works flawlessly, you will need a E content gauge.

HOWEVER - Breather mods are a game changer with our cars, ethanol or CA 91. Everyone I know with e85 has already upgraded to dual intake, bigger charge piping and full flowing exhaust at the least. So I don't really know how much the gains will be assuming your mods are as listed in your profile, though I'm sure you will be able to push much more boost with ethanol.
