that is impressive! iam still trying to learn on why people are making those higher numbers with the E85, u think its the energy concentration/density with the E85 is higher? will have to research it.

another question, when u change ur injectors to a higher flow ones such as the 1000cc, does that hurt ur gas mileage?

Thanks,

Look over in the Alternative Fuel section to learn more about E85 as it is great stuff. E85 burns much faster the gasoline. Put it this way, I was averaging 18-20mpg in the city on pump gas and now I only get 12-15mpg in the city. But when I'm having this much fun, I honestly don't care especially since it only costs $1.59 a gallon.

ya that's true, i guess it all depends on how much it gets. i gotta look into how many stations are there in raleigh, NC to see if its applicable to me to do the switch.

Blue is E85, Red is pump 93 octane

I'm actually making a bit more now since I'm running a bit more boost and I have the Forge WGA.
WOW that is nice numbers.. im going to do that soon
