Timing ended up running 4* to 19* @ 27psi. 334/332 on dyno dynamics with tbe/mbc/gsc s1/drop-in/walbro/1000cc

 

So, you just tune it like it was race gas but add gobs more fuel - like 20% more? How do you tune the stock ecu to idle? Just go for 14.7 afr??

 

I read somewhere 30% more fuel was/is needed. I have a friend (really I do), who does fuel injection testing for the BIG 3 in Detroit, and dumped E85 in my brother in laws "flex fuel" Avalance, and his gas mileage blew! He went from 19MPG to 9MPG, just by going from Pump to E85. So there is a downside of just dumping it into a newer vehicle. Needs to be tuned. Don't quote me on the 30% Smoggy, you know me, hear something and post it without researching it.

If I can figure out what system/cmponents, etc... we could ALL benefit from for our cars, I will just drop my car off to my friend for some R&D up in Detroit.

 

Someone told me you had to change the fuel filter???

 

Haven't heard that, but then again, no one likes a plugged up corn-hole! (Well, I speak for myself)

 

LOL....someone told me it pulls the coating off the inside of the gas tank and gets stuck in the filter....this is all hear say....not sure if its true about evos

Don't you think all the people talking about it who are currently running it might be experiencing problems if this were the case?

No problems here.

 

...........with your corn-hole, or fuel filter?







How long, and how many miles have you been running E85, and what mods to your fuel system did you retrofit? If any. Thanks for the input in advance.

 

LOL smoked

 

Thankfully both . I've been running e85 since January, about 4000 miles. I put in a Walbro and 1000 cc injectors.

 

That's all you did? That is great to know! Thanks! What Walbro? 255lph or a larger one? what sized turbo matched with the 1000cc injectors?

 

^ He did a 255 with a 35R, I am getting my double pumper equipeed 35R tuned tomorrow hopefully

AWESOME!!! Keep us posted on your results!

 

That's right and I was maxing out my injectors at 26 psi. You should get better results with your double. I'm going to add a FPR and fix my boost issue and tune it for 28-30 psi.
