E85 is the shizzle. That is all.

 

so you are making a production turbo kit? how much you plan on the kit costing? also roughly how much for the fuel system upgrade? I live in nebraska so lots of corn = lots of E85! which would be better in your opinion? 92octane w/ 50/50 water meth injection or E85 or both? subscribing.

 

I wish there were more E85 filling stations in my area, I would jump all over this if there were. But for now its still a niche product in my area, two stations one 25 miles the other about 40 miles away from where I live.

 

Nice numbers.

How is the idle on the 1600cc injectors?

 

Straight e85, hands down!

Getting them to idle isn't too bad... They just tend to run a bit fat. lol

 

Yeah, the above question seems obvious to me. Would you rather add the complication of meth. injection along with a different (more expesive) fuel? Or, would you rather just switch and tune to E85. FYI, it is my understanding that most modern vehicle can switch to E85 without needing to switch out fuel system components because the lines were redesigned years ago throughout the industry so that vehicle could run ethanol mixed fuels. There's a guy on the Sti forums who has been running E85 for over 40,000 miles with a Walbro 255 LPH fuel pump without any issues. Walbro recently asked him to exchange his fuel pump just to analyze his because they are interested in making the claim that their fuel pumps are fine for this fuel. He said there was no degradation of his lines, fitting, or any of the rubber gaskets on the fuel pump that he examined.

 

^^ very cool.
