Very nice Mickey. How much extra timing did it want on e85?

Awesome numbers man.
You got what you expected.
It's quite impressive for a reasonable sized camshaft.
Look forward to the cruise.

It took 6 degrees more, feels a lot crisper rite thru rev range.
IAT's were only 18degrees celsius, im sure would have shown a bigger gain if it was warmer... 18 rwhp gain across the board is a good get in my book
ill post up an overlap of 98 and e85 tomorrow... So happy to get that 500rwkw
mayb this link to a vid of tuners comments...... He has never been near something starting with a 5 NA

18rwhp , little more in mid range, right from the get go,
it does cost going e85 . I had to buy flex fuel sensor, fuel line pipe fittings, 1050cc injectors. Also im new to tuning and wasnt going to try tune for e85 so needed pay for tune also.
Ill probably be dead by the time i pay off the cost using what i save on fuel. Is it worth it, for me HELL YEAH.. feels great driving it and gives me tht safety margin
oh and mr mamo's a legend. thanx Tony

My builder says the same thing too.
The engine is more responsive and feels torquier in the low and mid range.

Definitely, and whether it hot or cold e85 should run about the same hp , where as with 98 and a bit of heat soak i was losin lots. Didnt go easy on it on the ,dyno, 2 hrs tuning coz he started from scratch with havin new injectors, he did an awesome job, only thing ill do is raise idle by 100rpm, just my preference. Its even easy with clutch to get away

Holey ****, I dam near spit my coffee out. LMFAO. That is priceless. Howd she pull? You need to blow that up banner size for your shop and at the track. Hell, I want to blow it up for my shop. Lol. Now that is a statement to end all. You definitely know how to get your point across. The level of sickness in that photo sets the bar pretty dam high. That picture without a doubt, made my day. Thank You.
