They shut down the e pumps by me I'm back on 93 for the time being. Where exactly are you? I think the kroger in Huber Heights has e85 and the Meijer in englewood. There's not many out here that's for sure.

Yea man I loved my LSJ TVS , but when it comes to modding, the LNF is just a lot easier it seems like. There is nothing crazy on my car but already feels quicker then my LSJ. Maybe it's just seems that way because of the TQ, who knows haha

The meijer in englewood is fairly close. Main problem is, my mom gets a speedway card at work and I use that for gas.. Soo if I get E at Meijer, I gotta pay for it myself.. And I'm not all about that.

It's all in the tune. My car was the same way when I put my TVS on. A friend of mine tuned me. Would sometimes break the tires loose, sometimes not. Worse when it was hot out. But I decided to get remote tuned which I'm still currently doing by James. I know you guys don't see eye to eye haha. My car is completely different now. Blows the tires off no matter how hot it is out.

Got a job. Getting a job that pays anything decent atleast requires you to be over 18, which I'm not lol.

&& me and James are cool now. We talk. He helps me out with tuning

So you use to have traction, now you don't.

This for real, especially if your under 18. Just a slap on the wrist as long as you don't bring it to school.

Late birthday if you're starting college and not 18 yet.

I was like 5 months away from being 19 when I started college.

Most of the time I spun through 2nd and I only had a 3" pulley and no methanol or ethanol. I'm guessing your tune is off.

But I do agree. LNF > LSJ. I'd get an LNF next if i could fit my 16" snow tires on there. Damn Brembos.

I won't go back to TVS. If I keep the car long enough it's going turbo if anything. TVS was fun but it just cant hang with the higher modded turbo cars.

Agreed with this^ i think he needs to get someone to look into his tune.
