This is what I wanted to see out of a stock turbo. I wonder what an 06 MR would do with the same mods.

Is E85 available around Seattle? Have you tuned a IX for E85 yet?

According to the E85 webpage I think McChord/Ft. Lewis, Richland and I have heard that Yakima is possibly getting or has had a pump installed.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's not at the regular gas station on base. Must be at one of goverment vehicle stations. If it is, it's not accessible unless you have a special gas key to turn on the pump.

lets say you went on a road trip and couldn't find E85. if you simply turned down the boost would you be able to run the car on 93 without problems?

Military vehicles only bro. I can just imagine what the MP's would say if they see you filling up there.

We have RC 1000 in the car. On a side note I also have a very good pump gas tune on the 1000s that drives great.

would a set 280's help hold the hp a little longer up top or just hurt the power band? just wondering.
