Not happening.

As e85 prices are due to rise, it makes it even more of a pipe dream that E85 wont come to MB.

Our climate is just to....cold.
Ohhhhh ok I gotcha. Ya could you imagine trying to start your car on E in -30? Lol

Yeah that gov one is still up and running, its part of the govs way to make them look green friendly to the public. Only certian gov vehicles run on them.

By my work is the lot with the vehicles. there are a few of them that say "E fueled" on them.

Yeah even in states like MN they use E50 when winter comes to prevent it from freezing.

and yeah garret we can, you are detuning or just adjusting?

Still got that CF trunk?

Yeah but after much deliberation as to what to do with the car, I've decided to keep it and the mods.

I finally have a solid full time job with a great company so I have a few plans.

Coils
downpipe... put that off for wayy too long
switchable tune with launch control (I've been away from the forum for a long time so I dont know the most recent trifecta options)
twm short throw with cable clamp... I've had terrible difficulty with the plastic ****
and for now I'm going to strip the paint off the wheels and polish them
I sold my old apline system so I want to get a more moderate but higher quality sound, maybe a single 10 inch JL

Autopac is lower than molasses. We are still waiting to get paid from work we did months ago. Phone autopac to ask wtf, "we are 30-40 days behind on payments right now". Unreal

I've turned to the bottle for answers.

Headlights are almost done. Still tossing a CEL and ABS sensor light. (traction control) Got to figure out that one.

I think spring time seafoam will clean up the CEL. So says the forumz.

the side damage, another spring time fix. i got a autobody guy now who does deals cheapo so ill presuade him.

Then i need to powder coat the rims, buy new tires and sell that shiittt.
