Hello all, just reporting back for some actual results from E85, in case someone here's on the fence about it.
My car in 9500' DA on 7-7.5 lbs of boost trapped 99mph in the eighth on E85. Last year on 91, I barely went 96mph, in 8500' air on 10-11psi, and I must mention again this was 91 octane, not 93. My ET wasn't that great because of traction issues all day long. The only other change was my tuner, car feels similar in power, but my new tuner locks the converter at the top of 3rd instead of top of second, and I have to admit it feels leagues better.
Our little Evo 10 also went from a 9.0@75, to a 8.6@81 with nothing more than E85 and tuning for it. It's an auto if anyone cares.
Not bragging or anything like that just simply trying to put some actual data on E85 is all. Honestly wasn't expecting as much improvement as we received! Cheers!
