FL My E85 set up on my starlet will it work ?

ok reading online seeing majority of people using 2x boschs pump and the 4x id2000 injectors. I see that im approaching this differently. Give me some input whats do you think?
I have a 83' toyota starlet with a Series 5 t2 street ported
EMS; Microtech lt10s
Turbo : GT35 Garret
Now for fuel setup
Aeromotive A1000 (e85 compatiable)
Fuel filter (with stainless steel element 10 micron)
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator (e85 compatiable)
4 bosch 1600cc injectors
Fuel cell
-10 for feed
-8 for return
-8 at the fuel rails

The cars obviolsy has all the supporting mods to make 450 to 475 hp on 18 to 22psi hopefully which is MY GOAL! so the qusetion is should i be alright to run with this setup on E85.

Don't know if I would trust the injectors, but otherwise you look fine for the amount of boost.

At idle with the right injectors you can go to 14:1. At load, I try to stay around 12.2 for the most power.
