E85 rocks...we picked up 20whp throughout the curve over MS109. More down low as well. Plus it's pretty cheap!

I might have to go that route... almost 800 bucks for a barrel of C16 and it sounds like you guys are getting great results from the E85.

I'm getting 600 WHP on my X with 30lbs.. any extra from E85 would be nice.. lol

The cost alone is worth it...

Bryan at GST (NorCal) could give you an E85 tune, he's switched a bunch of C16 race cars over to E85 with good results.

I saw some threads on your car - it's sweet. Ivey is a good tuner; but no need to ship the car across the country with Bryan in the same state, he's posted in this thread (post #66) if you don't know him....

E85 is nice stuff and worth the switch for sure.

Ryan,

Care to share a Red vs 750R dyno graph...

AMS Prototype 750R kit at 35psi on E85 vs. FP Red at 35psi on 110oct.

Both at track tunes...not tuned aggressively for all out power

Ditto, Bryan is one of the best tuners in the country and very popular among evo owners here in norcal.

Thanks for the comments on my car and the heads up on Bryan. I'll keep that in mind if I decide to make the switch.
