e85 and hose between fuel rail

*** Oops posted this in the wrong forum **** please delete.
Hi All,

Anyone know if the hose between the fuel rails need to be changed out when running E85? I'm only changing the pump setup (silly rabbit) and running new lines all the way back to the driver side fuel rail and then everything else is stock all the way back to the tank.

My question is do you need to change out any other hoses fittings along the way? I would figure you would but haven't heard I needed to do it.

Thanks in advance.

David

Only thing that needs to be upgraded is the injectors, pumps and hoses stays stock. Unless you are on non-vtg large turbos, but stock or upgraded vtg's seems fine with only injectors.

I looked at that hose too, I didn't see any reason to change it unless you were going to larger fuel rails, feed line, etc.
