[QUOTE="ShelbyGT5HUN, post: 15431671, member: 161356"] Go dyno it, or measure out a 1/4 mile (easy to do on the Interstates that measure mile markers in tenths, just start even with one, then go past 2 and 1/2 of them, or use Google Maps to measure between land marks) and see what it traps. Should be close to 130mph if not a hair more. If you have a buddy with a fast car, do a 4th gear roll. ******************************* Also, this might be stretching it a bit logically... you said you are running E85. That stuff is corrosive like nobody's business. Have you changed your oil recently? Typically, from what I've read here, you need to run a special motor oil, change it every 1000 miles max, and have a great oil catch can. You might have a ton of sludge in your oil pan, and things might be clogging up like a thick chocolate milkshake. [/QUOTE]
