Green Vs. e85

just wondering how a stock turbo e85 is able to pull me by a car at the strip? my mods are in my sig....and on the OBDII dyno it said 400whp....and on a Mustang Dyno 370whp 372wtq (since then i added TurboXS FMIC, TT UICP and retune leaning out to 12AFR) we both have the same tuner.

whats the deal?

I'm the guy with the stock turbo on e85, and to defend the OP, those numbers were on a mustang dyno, and as far as the tuner goes, he's very knowledgeable and has tuned basically all of the evos here in Texas, especially the DFW area and those in the nearby states where tuning shops aren't exactly easy to come by

As a side note though Andrew, I'm a bit surprised myself, as I for sure thought you would get me?

if your on pump then yea, it makes sense. I have tuned alot of stock turbo evo ix's on e85, they range from about 420-450 depending on the parts. Look at strykers car, 11.27, stock turbo e85, your green is not going to run near an 11.2 on pump. dont feel bad, e85 is no joke. tune your green on e85 and then see what happens,
