Tolerence of the fuel, prob able to run more boost or timing given the same amount of fuel, but then again I'd like to see the gas milage on that. Its supposed to be less. Great gains none the less.

Well my turbo shop car isnt gonna get great gas mileage anyhow. I would like to be able to turn up the boost and make the big numbers with out having to use $5.00 race gas. I may look more into E85 than I thought.
