Can you ‘easily’ add another in the tank? Twins would be more than enough. FWIW, a single 255 is good for roughly 375WHP on E85. Hell a Boost A Pump on your single might get you there

also 14.8 mpg with that kind of driving in something that powerful is pretty darn good.

It’d pay for itself quick if you’re using race gas right meow, but honestly I think your car would be fine on pump gas, bottle and the proper tOOn

True dat “N”. Do it up! Just need the proper injectors also. Stock fuel line is probably fine…I made 760 with a -5 (5/16").

It’s always been on E85 since I owned it. Bought it and it went from the trailer to the garage lol. Considering how rich it’s running right now, it’s probably the ‘slowest’ it’s been since I’ve had it. ReT0oN coming soon!

We’re still on winter blend, it should fix itself when the tanks get depleted and refilled.

I’ve got a E85 tester on the way to verify content, but the high boost side of the tune needs a touchup anyway. Actually, it’s probably fine, but I don’t want to risk trying it and making internal engine parts external engine parts lol

Nope, however it could make as much power on low boost as it does now on 93 octane, I just like the safety margin that the E85 provides.
