You can on E85 since it burns slower. I picked up 30lbs of TQ on a mild 14b 2.0 setup going from 18 to 23 degrees. At 24 degrees it gained nothing, and by 25 degrees it would actually drop. Obviously I am not going to know where the sweet spot for this engine will be until it's on the rollers.

Or get a Kigley girdle.
I am already setup to use the 6 bolt. I am leaning towards the Kiggly girdle but I need to do some more research first.
