I logistically cannot run E here. BTW Stabil does not work with Ethanol. I drove 88 miles just to get to one of only 5 E stations in Louisiana, which is unfortunate. Anyways, the car is about to be put to bed for the rest of the year, I would love to see what the ultimate solution is this winter.

Stabil has a new version designed to prevent problems with E. It's not red

Got the results back from yesterday's logs. My HP Fuel Pressure is dropping to 900 psi in the midrange where IDC gets >55%, just can't get enough fuel in the beast!

In for an HPFP upgrade.... Hello ZZP?

Going back to 2:1 E (60%) like I was all winter on a new base file for now.

Nick! How's yours going???

Yes, you are correct. Vince wrote me a 60% E file, I'm happy with that. I know I can run that all year long. Mine punked out someplace between 75 & 80 % as near as I can tell. I'm on my third fill of E85 so I'm all the way there now.

No worries, waiting to see Nick's bolted TC's results.

Mine is doing fine without modification. So is vinces HHR. What it looks like it that the more bolt ons you do, the more problems you might run into. After nick@byt gets his results in we will see if this is the case. Hopefully it is not.
