How much boost are people running on e85? Ik they say it’s about 105 octane but the cooling effect it has helps a ton... is it reasonable to say 30lbs is good?

Well it's not just the fuel you need to worry about.

What's your powerplant consist of?

On pump e85 on a street car, yeah that sounds about right. 30lbs with twins on a V8, but not much passed that.(a 4 banger 35-45lbs) I Don't see too many 1500+ horse power cars running pump gas. Seems like 12-1300 whp is the limit on pump e85.

Sounds good I won’t be at 30 but kind of close so I should be good
