I've been running E85 for the last two track season on STi injectors with the rest of the fuel system being entirely stock. The only issue I have had is that I end up fuel starving sooner.

Haven't been on the dyno, but the Virtual Dyno says 224whp. With that in mind, I'm not running any more total timing than gas because I have not tuned it on the dyno. I have smoothed over the timing and accounted for a lower VTEC.

I've been on e85 for the past 4 years with my car. No complaints except that my fuel meter took a dump recently which I'm sure was caused by the ethanol as the 8th gen civic guys have always had that issue when running e85.

Easy fix though.

Great resource on e85: http://injectordynamics.com/articles/e85/

I run it on my dedicated race car, left it in over the winter and let it sit all winter long. Screwed up my injectors, but they was my fault. I've also run it on and off for many years prior to the car being a dedicated race car.
