So what is this for exactly? A replacement for your typical fuel pump?

I believe it would be for the HPFP supplying a higher volume on the top end of more e85

What were your trim levels getting to & with how much E85 before it was decided that you need to upgrade your LPFP?

I usuall run 5 gallons of e and the rest 93 which is about e32. My trims have never pegged out at 50, usually 35-40. My fp_h stays between 12 and 14. I decided i wanted to upgrade because according to what ive read a stock lpfp wouldnt keep up with e50-60.

Cooling, higher octane, less prone to knocking, smells like corn and because it makes you look cool at the gas station

Potential for more power. Why would anyone spend $8/gallon on race gas when you could mix $2/gallon E85 with the same result

Let me know once you get it installed, curious to see if the EKPM throws a fault for it or not. it may not be happy with the increased current draw, and nag you on the iDrive screen. If it does I can code it to be happy with the new power requirements.

Would be interesting to slap it on a Dynojet start at E40 pull, then E50 pull, then E60 pull until his logs show FP_H = 11 and/or Trims maxing out

Whats your FOL at ?
