    Does upgrading your fuel injectors and fuel pump give your car more performance, or is this upgrade more of a setup to run a bigger turbo?

    It all depends on your current setup, and how maxed your injectors are. Do you want to upgrade and run e85? In my opinion it can be for both.

    You will gain no performance from just upgrading your injectors and fuel pump. It is a modification you do to support other mods once you max out the stock fuel system.

    I agree with KA-T_240 if you are thinking about e-85.

    I may tend to disagree.... My old 03 WRX was completely maxed out on stock injectors. The tuner said there was more HP to be had on 91, but I needed to upgrade injectors. My old wrx did happen to be a "factory freak" however as I was told by many.
