How do you convert? Do you need a certain type of injector?

Depends on the vehical, generally you need larger injectors and tuning done. Most tanks, fuel lines, fuel pumps or ok to run E85 on.

I was thinking about doing it so I wouldn't have to pull as much timing for N20.

I have heard greater hp gains on FI cars than N/A. It would be about a 15 rwhp gain N/A.

i plan on running e85 as soon as i can get something to tune it with.

you typically need ~30% more fuel with e85 and can add 2-4* of timing throughout the whole map

its great stuff, i ran it on my turbo honda before i got my TA.
