Sweet! On the excel plots, perhaps make at the bottom like, 'mustang model XXX dyno' ...just stick it under the GST logo and include it in any plots you post, just so there's no confusion.

Great power for the stock turbo.

Curious to hear opinions on an aggressive E85 tune with the stock cat in place...

also, how does the car run on 91 with larger injectors (economy and around town feel)?

There is a new E85 pump at the shell on Palomar Airport Road in Carlsbad, Ca , like 3 miles from my place so I was starting to think about the possibilities.

Bryan,

Did you try any more boost than the 28psi? Or did you feel that was at the limit?

On the stock turbo you should be able to spike like 32lbs+ on e85. The X's turbo can't hold that boost but you should easily be able to spike it(huge torque hit) then it'll taper out. Anyhow I've seen and heard people were spiking 28+ on 93-94oct with no knock so e85 will be a fun setup(for me shortly) + red and cams.

No not yet. The owner is still on the stock clutch and as it was the first Evo 10 on E85 I have done I wasn't into pushing it just yet.

He will be coming back for a touch-up after he goes through a couple tanks of E85.

Just curious, how many miles do you think you can go on a full tank of e85?

I've been running E85 full time 24/7 in my personal Evo 8 for the last year and I see approx 2-3mpg less than 91 oct with mixed driving.

On the hwy its much closer to 91 oct mileage.

If you are romping on it all the time, expect less, just like with any fuel.
