Yea right now for something not a daily os ok but for a daily car like stated not knowing where the next pump is isn't fun yet.here premium 93 pctane is 4.30$/gal cam2 and v16 r 7+. E85 is 2.and some change.it'd be worth it if there were alot of the e85 pumps near me at that price

Ive been driving my S daily as much as I can E85 here is 3.09... premium is just over 4.00

I never let my car get much under 1/4 tank to finding a station in time isn't a huge issue for me

there's a lot of mis-information out there. don't believe everything you read. i've tuned plenty of cars on e85, some with stock fuel systems minus injectors with no problems.

on wednesday i had to pump e85 and i rode about 10 miles on 0 bars on the gas gauge to get to the nearest e85 station. i pumped ~8 gallons of e85. i went to fill up yesterday. i was able to squeeze out 165 miles with 1 bar left on the gas gauge. i think i could've easily taken it to 180, maybe even 190 miles.

Bumping an old thread but want to get the facts on E85. Some say harmful to OEM fuel lines and some say dont worry...? Larger fuel pump and injectors I can see.



Im running my ID725s to 88-92% 11psi redline of 9k so figure ID1000s and an Aeromotive 325 would do it?

i've been running e85 for a year now with stock fuel lines and a stock fuel pump. if you're running forced induction yes, get a aftermarket fuel pump.
