E85

Who is running full E85 in there LNFs? I would assume that the power gains are nice seeing as how you can run more timing.

I ran full e85 for a summer. Felt a nice little gain on the butt dyno but i had worse track times. Probably due to the wheels spun alot more and i couldn't get it to go into gear to save my life. Clutch was probably slipping or something from the extra torque. Then when the season changed and the gas station got a different blend i had a bunch of kr so i just stopped using it since the e85 station was outta my way from then on. It was deffinately nasty for roll racing though. If i ever mess with e again it'll probably be a blend so it'll last longer and because in 4th gear it ran outta fuel.

E47 is the LNF sweet spot for fueling.

I've said this a few times, but you can run E20 in LNF's and make roughly 98% of the torque available from full e85. I run e30 on 24psi and 19* advance with my 5558 and have lots of room to spare. On the stock turbo I was running 23-25* advance increasing towards redline on e30 with no issues.

Pretty baller. I know I have room to spare with the timing, I just like being conservative.
