Welcome! I did the same thing many years ago from a 1994 AWD Eagle Talon TSI to 2003 Evo 8. Great fun!

Hi welcome! Is it hard to find E85 near you? How much better (price, mileage, etc) is it?

Meijers gas stations are about the only place to find them and there are 2 near me thank god. The gas mileage sucks I run 1050cc injectors and I get maybe 210 miles to a tank. Premium around me is $3.98 right now and E85 is $3.29 a gallon. I filled my car yesterday for $37. E85 is awesome lol and them smell is so cool you can smell it in the car and when people follow you they can smell it too

Welcome! Can you run 93 octane if you don't have E85 fuel available? If you go for a road trip and you run out of E85...
