Was before I had the BNR.

 

And the fact that it's giving you 125* IAT's....

I'm sorta surprised by that to be honest.

 

lol gotcha, but im still not recalling, lol

Wut do you mean?? It wasnt the intercoolers fault for the hight temps. It was upper 80's to lower 90's that day, and the fan we was using was maybe a 25-30mph fan at tops at the shop. Plus not to mention the car sat maybe for 45mins before i pulled it onto the rollers. So too many factors againt the intercooler for it to do its job properly

Thinking about going this route, just wondering what kid of gas milage people are getting from this? Im stock turbo and blot ons btw and will be tuned by James

 

i wish the car that my tuner did on full e85 had a dyno chart available. im willing to bet its over 360whp.

 

I doubt it if it was on straight E85 and if it was, it was probably not by much. He's good but he's not gonna change the laws of physics. The stock setup can only produce so much.

 

youd be surprised of his ability. hes not one to make things up. we had a conversation about it when he was tuning me for my BNR and he was very impressed with the tune he did to that car.

 

Like I said, the car can only make so much and on full E85, he's not gonna get around the fuel system limitions which = less power UNLESS the dood had the upgraded cam lobe or 5th injector.

But yes, you've made it quite clear how awesome Area is.

 

nope. stock cams. stock fuel system

 

I meant to say upgraded fuel pump lobe on the cam. But yeah, I'd like to see what kinda power that car could put down.

 

How about gas mileage on e47? Lol

 

it was on stock cams. no upgraded fuel pump lobe.

also, 06black tuned an LNF with a 3076 on 34psi. stock cams, stock fuel system. car made 480/480 at the tires. i dont know much about 06black but from what i hear hes just as good as area.

 

When tuned right, & you will be tuned right, with James, not much different with MPG.
If you keep your foot out of it....

 

form what i hear keeping my foot off the gas will be very hard with the new monster!

 

so glad i read this thread. e47 sounds like a must!

 

For those of you saying you can't get it in your area, just order a barrel of vp racing fuel e85. Just mix as you go. But if your going to order fuel you might as well go for 110.

 

^^ not at $10-$11/gal as compared to $3.50-3.80/gal for e85.. lol

 

Ya it's 828 dollars here in Canada for a 55 gal barrel of 110 or 15.05 a gallon. I don't have to pay for it though, I'm one of those ******** that gets stuff for free haha.

 

How do you mix e85 and 91 to get e47. Is it a 50/50 mix?? I've been searching all over to get the properties down to add etc but nothing comes up.

 

Basically yes. That is of course you're assuming that the blend is definitely 85% ethanol. Unfortunately depending on what part of the country you're in, the time of the year it is, and even from one station to another, the blends can vary from 70% to 87% ethanol content.

Your 2 best friends when trying to accurately and consistantly keep a specific blend is a cheap $15 ethanol tester and a couple of these calculators from here.... Ethanol Calculators

Trust me, it's NOT hard to make e47, but there is some little bit of work on your end that definitely does need to be done unfortunately.

 

is 91 or 93 more widespread across the country? cause almost every gas station i've seen in maryland has 87 89 and 93, hardly ever 91. i suppose that 93 is just the standard fro "premium" here. but a lot of people on the forums and internet in general talk about 91 a lot.

 

In my part of the country 93 is definitely more available than 91 as well, but either way, whichever one is available they both contain 10% ethanol so the blends are done the exact same way. The only difference in the end would be the final octane rating, but it's honestly so small that it hardly makes much of a difference between the two.

 

Here in the states, 110 is leaded as far as I know and I'm not sure that it's worth ruining O2 sensors.

 

Thanks boss, I'll look into that right now!

If I do end up with an e52 mix per say by accident. Will I need a different tune if I'm correctly dialed in for e47. Or would it be negligible since it's just a higher rating?
