PS: In the chart - please disregard the 2nd column title for both charts - even though it says 93, I changed the variable to 91. |

Different states have different requirements. For example, max ethanol content in WI is 10.49%. MN is a minimum of 10%...could be 15% plus. EPA only regulates E10. So E15, E20 and E85 can and do vary widely. Some E85 might be E65...read carefully. This will also differ from state to state. So comparing dyno's from different ethanol sources in different states is likely not an apple to Apple comparison. What is the "best" blend in CA may yield different results in FL.

I don't have a delta between 92 Octane/Pump and and E85, My delta posted is between a 50/50 Mix of Trick 101 and 92 Octane and an E30 Run.

I have been doing 4-5 gallons with no adverse effects for a few months now. Maybe it's the tune but I have yet to encounter an issue. Also did the spark plugs recently and they looked good for 30-50k (not sure when PO did them).

I put 3 gallons and filled up with 91 octane. When I got to a 1/4 of a tank I noticed rough idle and the exhaust sounded funny, I kept driving keeping it out of boost until I completely emptied the tank and pumped 91 again.
since then car seems to be normal VT-625 ESS

I still need to dyno my latest tune.
I was at the track a month ago and was hooking well on my 275/35/18 MPSS's. Sunday, I uploaded my new tune and rolled back to the track from my hotel. First run of the day, I couldn't hook and spun them threw third gear, Ultimately I couldn't correct the fishtail and I spun it into the wall in the other lane. I should have lifted, but oh well, the damage was minor and only cosmetic. I will get my car back next week and I will continue to document my progress. One thing that I have noticed is that the car seems more susceptible to heat soak. Other than that, this fucker still screams. |

Best that I could do at 3000ft of altitude and street tires was a 12.6
.434 Reaction Time 2.049 60' 12.669 1/4 Mile 110.75 Trap These numbers are deceiving though due to traction and altitude. I'll be doing it again with drag radials in Seattle. |

Too much variance in E85 going from one part of the country to another. It's not like the tune would be "FlexFuel" and automatically adjust the Fueling/Ignition/etc tables for different ethanol concentrations.

We're speculating the my MPSS's just didn't sit well with the DHT once they had a chance to cool down over night. I can't wait to see another dyno though! I'll be taking mine back this weekend maybe as well. It gets out of the shop soon. |
