\<3 HKS.

:excited

Car doesn’t run bad. I’m probably just being anal, who knows. Come out for a ride and I’ll show you. And I’m pretty sure the car is making more power than 740whp or so. (Remember the spinning on the dyno) My black car made 690, and this thing feels way fucking faster.

I’m sure it runs well bud and I’d love to go for a ride (and I’ll give you one in my car). Just seems like the EMS is a TOTAL pain in the ass, and as you know, I trust an E85 tune out of the environment that it’s going to be driven about as much as I’d trust Howard tuning my car:lol FWIW, E85 like’s to knock when it’s run rich (from what I’ve seen anyway).
