[QUOTE="5.0Black, post: 16368256, member: 172762"] Thank you. Absolutely, I have no intentions of running race gas without a proper tune. The octane difference alone could cause some issues. Just curious what the power increase is on race gas to see if it is worth it, and if my clutch will handle it while I am out here in CA. It is rated to 500tq factoring a 20% drivetrain loss. It seems like if I stay phase 1 that it will handle it on 101. If I go phase II it will be pushing the limit tq wise, especially on race gas. Thank you for the response. Yea I messed up on the mileage gap between Monterey and SJ. Online it said it was 46 miles away from my zip, it's actually a little a little over 140 miles round trip lol. Just went up there to top off my 5 gal tank with E85. Just curious how long do you store E85 before its too late? I understand it oxidizes faster than regular pump gas so it can't be stored for as long. I would love to run E85 for power gains and cheaper gas prices, but at 140+ miles round trip my Mustang would be way too low on gas by the time I got back.
