Adrynalinjunkie - what method did you use to install your headstuds? Just curious, and I assume they were needed for the high psi!

first i gotta say congrats on the awesome 1/4 time

i was pretty excited about e85 recently as there is a station nearby to where i live that started selling it so i looked into it and this is what found out-recalling as best i can-important thing is that you find out everything about it before making a switch to e85 for a daily driven car.

most obvious problem is that it is hard to find. you will need to have some way to download or switch to a separate map if you are running out of e85 and have to go back to regular 93/91.

second is that e85 makes less power per given amount of fuel compared to reg 93 gas. so even though in maryland right now it is $3.20 a gallon for e85 which sounds great until you realize that (im no expert here so terminology is gonna be off) it takes more actual fuel to run your car for same distance-as in your gas mileage will be much, much worse.

third is that even though it seems our Evos fuel systems (hoses, pipes, lines, etc)will run e85 with some changes, it might take some time-as in months-before detrimental effects of e85 show up.

that being said you gotta love that gas stations are selling fuel with over 100 octane rating 8)

bottom line is that its not as perfect as it may seem at first but it has its uses and its always nice to have choices.

wow that is very lean. but i guess it's because of the alcohol type property of the E85. but it's very interesting that with 15 afr you aren't blown up in pieces
