So, I made the switch. Have plans to write it all up but let's just say that it wasn't all that hard to do. Fuel pump, Injectors, MBC to turn up the boost... tank drain (cool trick to doing this I discovered), swap pumps, pop the fuel rail, swap injectors, button it up, install MBC, fill with E85, take it to Lucas Racing and bingo!

BIG THANKS to Arron at Lucas Racing for putting his hand to the tune. Love it already, nice power gain although it looks like the MBC I installed isn't holding the boost It spikes to about 27 pounds and then falls off more than it should.

I'll get that worked out and we'll go from there. Looks like E85 is about to be a full DOLLAR CHEAPER than 92 here in a week or less... even now, it's under $2. Perfect time to get the swap done.

Really looking forward to the first race on the new juice.

+1 for English Racing.

 

Amen to English Racing! I'm going the meth route myself for the time being.

*edit - when E85 is more readily available up North I'll reevaluate what I'm doing.

 

im not going to lie, Aaron is pretty much the ****

 

marysville station is only 25 miles North of me in lynnwood. you should see how close that is to you.

 

There's one in snoqualmie i plan on using once i switch. I need to get a 55 gallon drum from my work (45 bucks new) and figure out where I want to put it. Oh eah, drive to lucas some how!

 

I'm gonna tell Aaron to ask you to get off of your knees or maybe thighs? or waist?


nahahahaha

 

Ask him for me also, i always thought billy's *** was sore...

 

he does walk kinda funny.... but that could just be all of the E85.

 

Problem with that station is it is only 20 miles from me but in the wrong direction. If it was on the way to somewhere I would contemplate it.

 

the one that's up north is past marysville. it's actually in arlington at exit 206 NB I-5

 

Welcome to E85 you never go back

 

hahahaha I laught for a minute or two when I read that lol

whats boost falling off to?

 

15psi. It will spike 27 and then drop like it already has a restrictor in it. I havent played with a high boost stock airbox car before. The last one I had was mine but I had the lid cut so it was actually pretty free flowing. I almost I think the MBC might be the issue but not sure yet. Hopefully that is what is it since thats easier to fix than make a stock airbox (needs to be there because of the class regs) work better.

 

i figure we should pitch in on knee pads for him, dont think hes gettin off his knees anytime soon lol
