Is anyother L61's running E85? I just converted on friday. The car feels so different now that its on E. Vince did a very good job tuning for it. Curious if any other boosted 2.2's are running it.

We were tuning for 14psi but i ran out of injector on my 60's. I ordered 80's and we will be back at it tuning.
Dyno numbers will be coming soon.

 

looking forward to seeing the numbers

 

Same

 

i am as well. my last dyno was on my sc setup and the numbers were dissapointing. Anyways, i had to turn it down to 5psi due to the injectors being maxxed out. Shes still pretty quick on 5psi, nothing to write home about but still. The engine runs much smoother it seems, the power is much more fluid if you will.

 

Are you on a stock motor? I have been curious about the e85, But Im worried about the added timing on top of being boosted might break something.

 

i am on the stock bottom end.

 

I can't wait for results. First time I have ever heard of a L61 on corn.

 

this is interesting. in for numbers

 

what turbo are you running?

 

Ill be on the corn when my tranny is put back together. but I'll be on 20 PSI...

 

T3/t4 57 trim

 

click... just found a place near my work w/ corn juice.

 

Verrr Nice!

 

i wish a closer place to me had E85 besides 30-40 minutes away. in for numbers

 

I've been running e for like 3 weeks now. 17 psi on the bullseye s256. It feels a lot smoother than pump gas. My question is how the heck are you on stock bottom end with 14 psi on a 57 trim?

 

It does really feel alot smoother. gas milage is so-so not that it bothered me when i made the switch. The car dosent seem to like cold starts, i need to address that when the 80's go in. As far as my bottom end, i have no idea really, im trying to push the limits of the bottom end and i have previously ran 16psi on the M62. So i kinda want to see the true failure point of the internals especially now that im running E85.

 

Wow that's impressive.. Mine went kaboom on 11PSI. Hole right through one of the pistons. I was on 91 too, but only dynod 260whp

 

Is the car still running strong??

 

dude im switching to e. Theres 2 stations in every town around here but 93 is almost impossible to get

 

I wonder if E85 will allow us to push the power levels on a stock bottom end

 

Tune with HPT and youll feel more power.07+ now can tune with HPT
Tundraboarder666 is HPT 2.2 2007 with 80's and going E85 really soon. he's fully built motor/trans as well

 

I wanted to go corn too but I'm afraid if Ill blow something

 

Kind of off topic, but I think it's funny that one of my co-workers gets irate when anybody talk about using ethonal for cars. His argument is that corn should only be used to feed his cows. Honestly I do not like the guy. So keep on using the ethonal to drive up the price of corn.

 

What injectors were you using that you maxed them out

 

Can't wait to go e on my car. Got fully built engine. Blew a hole in my piston when I had the stock bottom end pushing 260whp.
