So with the hole as my inlet my fuel pressure wouldn't make more than 15psi and the pump was whining and straining. Swapped it with the blocked off side as my inlet and it shot right to 51 psi and the pump was quiet.
So I guess for some reason the hole side is not the inlet....

Glad you figured it out. I was going to say you should look at the inside of your fuel filter housing. The ends of the housing should have hinted the correct orientation
^^Thanks for sharing that, I probably should have done a bit more searching. But I ended up with the correct configuration as illustrated above.
She lives! First drive and first fill up on E85. Runs well! Big thanks to Zack with 22rpd to get my car going.
Didn't get to do a lot of driving, but I'm definitely excited for my new affair with ethanol.

How are you liking it on the e85 so far? Put many miles on it?]
I've been back and forth with Zack about an e85 tune for mine and just pulled the trigger

20 psi with that turbo and e85 should put a smile on your face or a log in your shorts.

So, I'm here to see a 20+ psi video and there isn't even any dirty trucker BJ talk. Did you trade your car in for a gold Camry with doilies on the head rests? I want to see the mad horsetorques damn it!

This week has been crap.
So it's my spring break so I had lots of good races lined up. Got my car running but the scavenge pump has a tiny leak on the bottom of the gear box. So I pulled it off to rtv it. Set the gears on the ground and go to costco. Well the neighbors lawn service comes by and gets crap all over the car port and is nice enough to blow it all out afterwards , and guess what got blown out along with the leaves.......
With all the money I've spent on this car in the past month I need to start hitting up the truck stops again for real..
They blewjobbed your gears? Or did the truckers have something to do with the BJ this time? I probably would have made those races happen then secretly fix my oil leak afterwards, but with a smile
