Dang. I just found 2 new stations today.

I did hear some disturbing news though... Apparently the tax break or whatever it is that the gas stations get is going away soon and the price of E is gonna go up close to regular gas prices. There's a chance stations will stop carrying it too if there is not enough demand. I'll be pissed if that happens!

You won't get better gas mileage with E85, that's for sure.

Lol they are not accurate. Honestly they are low.. look at first dyno to this one . First dyno was heat soaked and had kr . The e tune dyno was just clutch slippage the whole time


First dyno was pulling in 35 maf and 31ve and made 318 whp. His e tune 41-42 maf and 36+ish ve ... I can see it which I'm sure you can as well.

I'm not saying I ever ran E, but if I did, I might have gotten 14 MPG.

Well done James. Wish we had some E down here, I'd definitely be running some with one of your tunes.

Waiting for turbo tech to release prices on KY clutches, if they even become a dealer for KY, need that stage 3.

I had wondered this myself actually. I think maybe bc it's speed based? I would like to think the numbers are low like James suggested since it couldn't lay it all down. Can't wait to get the clutch. Even knowing this number may not be right, I'm still pretty excited. It's a glimpse at the power there is to be had on a properly tuned E blend.
