Cool I didn't know that because its not on any of the E85 station maps.

Yeah once I have a dyno I will be tuning my car to be open loop all the time. Then I should get a lot better gas mileage all around

That reminds me, I have economy mode... I wonder how much better mileage I could get out of using it and "I" drive, since I think I've been voted to be the driver to Vegas in March.

For just cruising on the freeway "I" mode won't really make a difference.

Also Vegas in March? You going to amviv?

It will if you are incapable of just cruising

And to your other question: No, I'm going down with friends the weekend before, I wish it worked out to be AMVIV weekend. Ali and I are no longer together, but she didn't want to go when I asked her anyway. She's afraid the Mini would break and cost her even more money on the trip.

love my small battery but the cold temps suck with it. I had to jump start my Evo at least 6-8 times this winter. The temps were -10 to -30 so you should be fine in Utah.

I could but I want to tune for max power at the leanest possible afr during cruise loads/rpm's...which can only be measured with a dyno..and thus tuning it that way I get the best mpg possible

oh and did you want that BOV flange?

Bcz u can't measure wheel torque without a dyno..esp at cruising loads and rpms. U can lean it out and get better mpg but u don't know at what point ur power starts dropping off while leaning it out.

How much for the flange?
