E85 + 100% meth. What is the octane?
Posted here because the fuel section does not have the response rate we do in the FI section.
I hear that 93 and meth comes out to around 116 octane.
Made me wonder what it was for those of us who run E85-E90+ meth.
The 93 goes to 116 with it being a 23 pt gain so E85 being 105 roughly would surely not gain the same 23 points.

You would need to know the pressure delta over the nozzles as it varies with boost and pump pressure, depending on your meth controller. Flow dynamics of the orifices would also play a part in fuel mass delivery, however more negligible. That combined with the amount of fuel coming from the fuel injectors will determine the octane of the mixture.

I know guys running e85 with meth mixed in the fuel, no intercooler, over 20 lbs of boost, and is running in the teens in the 1/8th. Clearly it works if you figure out the correct ratio to mix

This is what I will most likely be doing with my car. 3 nozzles with one of those nozzles pre compressor and E85 and NO intercooler . I will probly run c16 with the meth in the mean time.

Well I know my AFR stays 11.0 when at wot and when meth comes on it goes to 10.2 and holds all the way to 16 psi. I don't have progressive controller. Its wide open at 7psi
