is this what your saying about E85?

So what your telling me is that E85 can't cool because its not in the "air pipe"? Wow, just wow.

E85 make thing run cooler because you have to run more fluid.
more fluid = cooler egt temps
If you want cooler intake pipe buy a bigger intercooler

haha Omg nos!!!!

As for running e85 with stock injectors and stock fuel pump i don't think it would be smart. You need about 30% more e85 then gas and i don't think the stock setup can handle it.

Only thing I guess I will contribute to this Awsome debate is. We live in Pittsburgh where we have 2 very viable options as far as fuel go's straight out the pump.

93 octane , proven to be able to support more boost than most are willing to try to run it to.

E85 which well do I really need to hype this fuel up anymore than it is.

I guess its like this for those who dont believe will sort them selves out in 2 different ways.

1 breaking their shlt when that meth systeem says F U

Or just gettin beat down by another comparable setup car but running a better pump fuel option

you missed out on a set of brand new 1050's I just sold them for a lot less than retail - would have worked well for you.
