Wow so it's that's much of a difference? How far has your mpg dropped? Also I take it you've been data logging for Will? I ask because for me it's like a 25 mile drive one way for e85. Not sure it's totally worth it but I guess the numbers will tell us

derek1387 · 03-23-2016, 06:51 AM

I dropped roughly 3MPG. But, it could be because I am on it a lot more now as well.

The nice thing is I can switch back and forth to E85 and 91, so if i know I am going to be doing a lot of play....E85. If i am going to be doing a long distance/highway trip, 91. Just have to be wary of whats in the tank. Thankfully, i can see/read that with the Autocal!

Shawno72 · 03-23-2016, 06:56 AM

Awesome so a quick read of the Autocal and you can determine what tune is appropriate and change it to suit your needs? I def would only run the e85 when it's gonna be all play lol

derek1387 · 03-23-2016, 08:32 AM

I can see what my alcohol percentage is. It doesnt tell me which tune i should be using. Waiting on Will to comment on that one.

There is finally a station in my area offering e85, but if i buy the kit i am not sure how i would hook up the fuel lines since i am already using that port to feed my nitrous fuel solenoid.

I'm in the same boat with the fuel line. Maybe a coupler that allows us to tap into the fuel line where the two braided lines will gives us. Just a thought.

But none of that matters until I find a closer e85 station.

I thought of that, but would be concerned of a volume drop while on the spray.

derek1387 · 03-27-2016, 02:13 PM

Well that's lame! Lol

I'm waiting on a retune from Will for the e85. Been a bit since I've heard from him...might be time to check back in.

May as well go ahead and order the Overkill tune as well. Gonna need his e85 tune anyways
