Can’t wait for you to come on your next days off! Hopefully I don’t feel like I’ve been beaten with a sharpened meat mallet by then.

The pain is one thing but when that painful stinging itch flares up hole lee **** you cant even function

Pretty killer gain just from E85....60hp.

Did you swap the CAI at the same time? is that part of the gainz?

Nice job either way.... 750 rwhp is perfect for a street cruiser.

Nice gain

Maybe you can hit 9s now

I’d be trying for that if I were you. 10.1 is just too close

In the cooler regions winter blend is typically E60-70 to make cold starts easier is all. Our pumps will get back up to 80% by may or june at the gas stations.

This blend at my pump isn't spose to change no matter the time of year.

My cold start was actually pretty darn good on it.

The crew has embraced it. It's now e85 pump fuel.

E85 here in Lincoln was only about 60% up here even just a couple of weeks ago. When it was really cold, I would cut it down with some pump 87 octane to make about E50 just so that car would start well in the single digit temperatures.

Now, when I filled up on Sunday, I am getting about 81% out of the pump.

Guess you didn’t catch the sarcasm.

There isn’t much to be gained on e70 vs e85 anyway. Make a good ole 932 on e73 here.
