I'm going to run a Treadstone 1300hp A2A intercooler.

What's cost on one of those? Always like the intercooler pipe going straight up the middle. I may get this one day and ditch the eBay unit.

I believe that unit is right at 500 bucks.

Good choice on the IC, I run the same style Treadstone one on my TT car. And Trick makes some nice stuff, they did my cage mount switch box on the same car.

It will still be run on E85 with the intercooler at first until this 55 gallon barrel of fuel I bought for myself and our customer with the orange car is gone.

Then I will try C16 and Q16 to see which makes the most power.

If they're all within 10-20hp, I'm running C16. C85 and Q16 because they're highly oxygenated will eat your fuels lines, plug your injectors tear your fuel pump up from sitting etc. etc. etc.

I like racing because it's fun, and changing the trans fluid and oil after every race is a chore in itself. Having to drain, flush with gas and then drain again after every race on top of fluids isn't something I want to do for 10-20hp.

If it's 30hp I might think long and hard about it. If it gives me 40hp+ I'll be going through the trouble of doing all of that. We'll see I guess.

I have a feeling the C85 and Q16 will both make the most power. How much more is yet to be told.

Thanks for all your help Craig!

I'm still trying to decide if I still want to mount the switch panels to the carbon fiber panels I have because the silver panel and black lettering looks great by itself.

I've heard the same. Haven't decided 100% if this is the route I want to take, but it's the most appealing at this point in time.

I just don't want to pay nearly 500 bucks for this intercooler and not kick myself in the butt later on because a 200 dollar Ebay intercooler would of done the exact same job. Or kicking myself because I should of just spent 500-600 more dollars and bought a nice Shearer A2A. Or just ponied up and gotten an A2W.

It would take me nearly 1-2 months just to save up enough extra cash to purchase the A2W set-up I want. I'm just the type person where I don't like doing things twice. I'll do it overkill the first time if it's within reason. I can't afford a 10,000+ engine but I can afford some of the smaller things for now.

Is yours the 6" tall or the 9" tall version? I'm looking at the 9" tall version that I believe is rated to 1950cfm.

I've heard 2-3psi at the most from several people with anywhere from what seems to be a 60-80 degree above ambient IAT rise on 24-28psi.

If it will do that on mine on a 80-90 degree day, I'm cool with that.

Craig@Trick does do some nice stuff!

from an engineering standpoint couldn't you analyze the fuel data on each, C16, Q16, etc. and determine which would be the higher HP winner?

most people on the bullet will give you their personal experience with which fuels gave them what types of gains over others. I remember reading a comparison with E85 and C85

It looked like the 6" tall version. Glad it's working good for you, hopefully it will work well for me if I decide to go that route.

Certainly, but nothing beats a real world comparison.

Any updates?

I just brought home an 02 Camaro with a 8 point CM cage. Looking to follow in your foot steps.

Trying to decide what I want to do about an intercooler. Whatever we do we will be building our own and it will use a Garrett core.

Going to start re-building the turbo kit soon after I decide. I also have my doubts about the Holley EFI after the issues we've been having with the orange RS275 car in our shop.

Looking at Fast XFI 2.0.

Well I am similar I kinda go overkill and want the best but ballin on a budget. If it's just a track car then you know you want that A2W. You know it be worth the extra wait and do it better the first time.

I agree about the A2W. I just dunno if I can swing it right now.

A98WS6(Are you tim from the bullet?)

We really like the Holley. It's extremely easy to use. We're having major fueling issues right now that I really don't want to go into. There is a now 7 page thread in the electrical section on the bullet documenting our issues.

Out of nearly 7 tuners that have looked at the file, numerous Holley technician's and more than 50 people in that thread no one can figure out what our issue is.

Thanks for the update. Will have to check it out. Sorry to hear it though.
