Cheaper than race gas
Lowers intake temperatures
Can be boost activated
Regulated by nozzle sizes
Easily hidden


Highly corrosive
Have to replace or rebuild pump every couple of years
Eats supercharger bearings if not properly atomized before TB
Don’t forget and let The tank run dry!

I did it for about 3 years until I made the switch to E85. I had no problems whatsoever.

Dropped the car off today for retune, since i added dual pass hc with fans and 2.9 sc pulley seeing 20 psi now with iat temp 147f bsck to back , was pump only but added flex sensor for e85 and 93. I bet he probably can work around that iat for e85 as long as there is no knock when keep adding timing? Looking for 800to 875 whp, on my 408 stroker setup

Yep, that is how we did mine — raised the temp where timing is pulled since I only race with e85 — taking advantage of the cooling factor since it does not show in iat2.

BTW, post blower spray of meth is better for an SC. The LSA lid upgrade from prometh is an example...

All in the tune when it starts to pull. I believe the ZL1 SC tune starts pulling at 140. Your tuner decides what best/safe. Can’t wait to see what yours does. Mine is a ‘safe’ tune...
