e85 or not with bolt ons
so i am going back and forth and have been looking at pros and cons.
will be running
ETS intake
ETS intercooler with piping
ets v2 extreme
ets test pipe
ams downpipe
grimspeed ebcs
i figure ill be in the 350whp range on 93 with this.
if i did go e85 i would probably get the maperformance fuel package.
I dont drive the car on long trips and e85 is accessible in my town. From talking with local people, my local HEB has always had the closest to 85 constantly.
i talk to some people and they love e85 and have been running it for a while with no problems. but then i talked with a buddy of mine that has a 12 mr and hes telling me that i should not go e85 on bolt ons because i would probably be maxing out the stock turbo and in the winter i would have problems with start up and my tune.
any input would be appreciated.
also looking for a good place to get a tune in texas. Ive heard good things about jms, tfp, cobb so far.

absolutely nothing wrong with running E85. Your list of parts look good but you are missing injectors & fuel pump. Double check if the MAP package includes everything needed.
In cold weather, it'll take some cranks before you turn your car on, it's normal while running E85.
You can do wonders with the stock turbo and be safe, assuming you go to a well reputable tuner.
