Default D1SC + Bolt-ons + E85 = 545rwhp

Had a fun weekend in Watertown SD. Had the car tuned by Andy, the short of it is 545rwhp/486rwtq on an 8lb kit. More details are here:

http://www.dynotuneusa.com/cornchicken

and a video
posted later

This is the first E85 (Corn) Blown F-body that we know of. Its also a flex fuel vehicle as well. The tuning was doen using a Prototype Predator Programmer. Not bad for just bolting things on a car. I also wanted to note that this is with a stock fuel pump and a Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump.

This has completely exceeded my expectation.

Big thanks go out to rubbersidedown(Andy), morejuice(Jesse), and JUSTIFIEDC5(Ryan). Thanks fellas!

The top chart is the E85 tune and the bottom one is the 91 octane chart. Just wanted to show the difference between the two.

What kind of fuel pressure are you getting with the boost pump? How well did it hold pressure at peak RPM ?

TIA

E85 has a lot of promise for the future. Can you PM me the A/F ratios on E85.

I don't know what the AFR was on the E85, I was running the camera during those runs. I was told to not disclose that information anyways. You would have to ask the tunner.

As you can see the fuel pressure was fine on the 91 octane gas by the looks of the AFR. I'll have to ask how the pressure was throughout all the runs.

I just talked to him, the pressure stayed the same (60psi) for the 490 run. It dropped slightly on the top end on the 545 run. We think that the pump is not the problem though. We had a gauge on the rail, it might be the rail but certainly not the injectors

The track numbers won't happen until later this year. Its not really a track car, seeing that it still has the stock 10-bolt w/3.73's, stock clutch, and stock Goodyear F1's

So you dont use the Boost referenced regulator, to lift the pressure ?

stock in tank pump (with stock regulator) The boost-a-pump is a voltage booster that, when triggered (by 3 or 5 psi switch) raises fuel pump voltage to anywhere from 15-19 volts, enhancing flow by a bunch (don't know specific # off of the top of my head) they've been used on mustangs for years, and we've used them on quite a few vettes...

lol at the chopped pics of you car. E85 should spread more as ethanol production rises. I'd really like to tackle a project like this.
