Someone run E10 with jb4 and the log looks pretty good with noticed power gain.

E30 here... run about 3 gallons of E85 per fill-up and she is running very strong in the summer heat.

ER DP
Dinan Midpipe

Any track times?
Could you elaborate on the custome elbow please......
Also what do the logs look like running E

Are you running meth?

I understand he's running 3 gal of ethanol mixed in with gas making the mixture E30, I personally think that may lean out dangerously.....

Track times reflect real gains, that's why I was asking if he had any.
Also I made my own intake as well and was curious to what he made his out of.

I was saying I'm running 3 gallons of ethanol but also have meth so my AFR is fine

Ahh I see, my apology sir.

Think I'm going to mix up e20 and see how that works out


Does anyone else have any track times?

What's e85?

E85=85% ethanol (alcohol) and 15% gasoline

On boosted cars it's pure awesomeness.
There are some minor drawbacks but otherwise it's an amazing fuel source. Usually e85 is around 100-105 octane and since 30% more of it is required to maintain proper stoich, cooler combustion is the result and that equals more tq for boosted guys.

But unfortunately most stock direct injected fuel systems are unable to support full e85.
Hope that helps

Nope, always ask your tuner what you should run on your setup

Hey man. I don't have track times unfortunately. I have a few vbox runs from the spring when it was cooler out (50s). I was running straight 93 back the and was able to get 12.1@116. I will try to get some runs this week for comparison and report back. If I can match that in the heat I'd consider it a win assuming my AFR isn't too far off the grid from the higher Ethanol content. I lent out the vbox to one of my buddies, should get it back before weekend. I'll run some logs too.

Thanx so much for the response dude!!! If you could log the da during test hits.
No way you have a vbox?! Aren't those 10k?

I'm going to test some e20 mix this weekend as well and maybe hit the track again shooting for 11.7s
