Thats always my problem, at some of the stations the best you can get is e65 but at kroger around here you get e80. Also last weekend I ran e85 one session and ran 93 another, with the e85 would say the car was running 20-30F cooler based on kombi gauge.

To be honest the cooling effects are what I'm most interested in. The power is a nice side effect.

The wire length is there. But you have to trim the lower shelf where the nav sits. Pretty straight forward once you have it all out and even easier if you have the dash out.

Those are solid numbers. I will get a chance to dyno mine next month, would be happy if I came in around the same.

What does your car weight now?

I would imagine that since the car runs cooler, you will have less power loss do to heat so the final net power gain might be bigger than shown on the dyno, right?

I might consider the E85 kit if my car continues to run hot like it has. Lots of E85 stations here in SoCal.

Excellent point, the cooling factor and being able to do whatever blend and even go back to 93 octane when needed is quite attractive. I may go this route before I upgrade my radiator/oil-cooler/dct-cooler and see how far it gets me.

Yesterday with 98F I was below 3/4 mark. That's with running Liqui moly, which I think since changing to has brought up my oil temps, not sure if its the oil or age. Also was running pirelli slicks.

That's impressive! I'm slightly over that mark (255F) in the mid-80's on re-71r's.

Here is the Hard Motorsports Splitter mocked up.

The brackets are really nice and make install faster. However with the GT4 lip we had to add a 1 inch spacer to the bottom of the bracket to get it under the lip. Will post more of finished product.
