You think you can make 1000hp with 4 1600's and e85? haha

I personally don't think 1600s are too crazy with e85. Looking at past logs I have been in the very high 70's to low 80's% with injector duty cycle flowing around the 60lb/min'ish with my turbo. I think my car idles pretty damn good on e85 and I like the fact if I ever upgraded a little bit my injectors could handle it. Hell if I wanted something that was idled perfectly, was good on gas mileage, comfy, easy to drive I'd just go get a nice buick.

Maybe not, but definitely 900allwheel-dynojet-hp / over 1000bhp, comparing my injectors to the 1650's using an injector calculator from RC. I'm flowing almost 40lbs/min of airflow and running 750cc injectors putting down 414hp/459torque with my 16G. Those 1600's are more that double the injector I'm running. I know my injectors aren't ever maxed; even in the snowy freezing winter I have enough injector to richen my tune up considerably from what I actually run (yes I've tried it just to see). How rich are you wanting to run anyways? Maybe all the fuel isn't getting up to your injectors?
