Re: E85

I was running it on my car. Everyone has mixed opinions. imho I love that stuff you can run tons of boost without knocking just like race gas. You have to add more fuel (about 15-30%) depending on circumstances. To really get the most out of it you will need a wideband. I have upgraded injectors that have viton seals on them and my fpr is ethanol tolerant. Sure it will eat away aluminum and other seals but my dsm is 15 yrs old so I could care less. If something melts (which I highly doubt it will) I will replace it with ethanol tolerant componets. A fuel rail is how much? You can get it almost anywhere in MN. It's funny to go and pull up to an E-85 pump and the instore goes "does your car take that stuff?!"
