You going to try E85 eventually. Obviously an upgrade of the injectors will be needed but I think you could see some great power gains from it.

That's the plan Nick. But just need to rig up a tank drainage system for when the car will sit idle for months at a time. Aparently E85 goes off after a while.

Yeah I have heard that. Doesn't it attract water though? So after a while you would have water in it? See it you can run 2 tunes if possible, one for E85 and one for Unleaded. That way you can fill up at any servo if you get stuck.

Got my new combo partly tuned up the other day.... Made much more power than i could have ever expected. So much so it maxed out the stock injectors, which i had just recently bought :doh: Just did a shake down run to check the afr's before tuning and found the injectors were already wide open :(

So i'm tee-ing up some bigger injectors then gonna get the tune finished in a couple weeks

Thanks guys. It's almost too good to be true, yet there is a fraction more in it :eek:

I didn't think n/a v6's would max out injectors :hmmm: lol
