5.0s gain nowhere NEAR 35rwhp with e85. 15rwhp tops... I barely feel a difference in my car between e85 and 93

E85 may not give 3x hp, but it shows gains through out the power curve. It may not be crazy gains but a e85 tune (not just a e85 compatible stock tune) is definitely worth mentioning as a mod.

Meh.. I can tell you first hand that I do not notice a HUGE difference between the 2 fuels on my car. I run a Flex tune, so it adjusts automatically... so no tune switching to add variables to it.... same tune... 93 vs e85... I MIGHT be gaining 15rwhp... if that. I know how the car feels, and how it revs on both.

Wow... poppa being a straight shooter. Big shocker there.

Too bad for Hio & company this didn't end up the way they were hoping.

Cars run on fuel. Run what you brung.

I can about guarantee if you dyno your car with your flex fuel tune on 93 and then on e85, you won't see 15rwhp. It'll be more like 9-10rwhp tops. It isn't a dedicated e85 tune

Flex fuel silverado picks up .3 on e85. Your info Likely off

Real world results. It is only worth maybe a tenth.

Must be because I have a inefficient old 2v LT1 but E85 was the last mod I have done to my car and I instantly felt a part throttle power difference and torque. Further changing the injector offsets in my car after converting it made just as big of a difference as initially switching it over. Felt about like the gain when I put the LS1 lid on and Chris1313 ram air. I would guess it picked up 10-15whp and at least that torque wise. Car would hardly ever spin the 275/60 Mickeys in second gear and now it will do it if it is 60 out or 85-90 degrees repeatedly. I would think the 5.0 wouldn't pick up as much being it's VE is already high having a 4 cam engine though. One big part about E85 is you can burn a higher volume of fuel and the vaporization temp is higher resulting in higher VE. Maybe it helped my stock castings draw in more air for the amount of lift I am running. Who knows. Quit sandbagging Bro's. If it wasn't worth doing people wouldn't do it. Also makes the car more consistent/less heat soak.

Who is sandbagging? Some are just guessing what they will pick up and some like myself are stating what they have picked up on both dyno and track results from real world experience, not just reading stuff on the internet.

You're right though, for $50 for a set of used injectors, ~7-10rwhp was definitely worth the gain for me over 91 octane.

7-10rwhp is solid gain. Especially when the gain is all the way thru the power band. Torque is also never brought up to either disclose the increase of which is usually the biggest gain between hp/tq or it is just out of habit when talking about power. It's not like E85 just gives some peak hp increase. It changes your entire power curve. That's my point

Agreed, for $50, 7-10rwhp is a solid gain. Can't be beat at that price.

I've always seen people report their peak dyno numbers and compare previous peaks vs new peaks for gains.

I guess I'll be more on the lookout for the "450rwhp/436rwtq @ 3600rpm" dyno people.
