606awhp@30psi E85

We tuned the car today. Made 606awhp@30psi and 450ftlbs of torque on E-85. Pretty happy with results, injector duty cycle is only at 70%, so we still are planning on turning it to 35-37psi in the next week or so. Once we get that tuned we will be adding nitrous into the mix (100shot), and i'm hoping to be knocking on the 800HP ranging with the squeez.

Anyways i am really impressed with E-85. I figured that maybe other people were consider the E85 route. I like it a lot! I dynoed the car before on c-16 made 580awhp@30psi before. So 20+ more horsepower and $10+ dollars less a gallon. GOOD STUFF!!

I'm still running relativly low boost for this turbo and setup but hopefully this year I can break into the 9second barrier, It's a huge wall to climb over but I hope i get there!!

p.s. this is no record it's just something that is still in the works, and im happy to make this kind of power here in Colorado (5200 ft of elevation)...

So you lost torque between the 2 fuels. That's a bummer...

Can't wait to see it tmw...
