im pretty close to the same. tanbe 3" tbe, comp 272/272, mr bov, fp wga, 1000cc inj, 255 pump, head studs , rod bolts, injen uicp-licp-intake kit, aem trueboost and aem wideband. also, going with the exedy twin before race season. instead of a turbo upgrade i was thinking sending my stock exh. mani, 02 and 10.5 hot side t buscher to have em ported and jet coated. might net me another 15-20whp. Maybe ill get a chance to see ya in action at pir or woodburn this next year

An increasing number of E85 related threads are popping up in different sub-forums on the board lately. This should be a stickey in this forum. Perhaps we should establish an E85 FAQ stickey as well.

I watched last night "How Stuff Is Made" on discovery channel, they said it would only cost $100.00 to change some hoses and rubber washers, then I guess you must reflash?

also they are comming out with 100% ethanol, this is good for about 116 octane of regular dino fuel

Hoses and washer probably aren't necessary. Higher flowing pump, larger injectors, and tune to run these items is.

Be advised if running strait 100% ethanol, you will need to supplement with some type of upper cyclinder lube. Whith E85, the 15% gas is enough to lubricate, and so it isn't necessary.
