Re: Pump & meth vs. E85

I will add on my post:

I was running before 111 gas. Straight up, 24/7. I had a tune back on my old scm61 for both pump at 20ish psi, and 111 for 26-28 psi. The car felt night and day different on these two gases, and fun was just too much for 111 to NOT run it all the time. Came with a price tag of 4.99/gal too. I didn't care. I drove from my house(maplegrove) out to bobby and steve's in fridley once a week to get the stuff, and put $70 of gas in my car to drive (was my only car too). Then, I re-tuned it again on 111 with the old 6776s, and drove it on that as well. Last year, I realized that 111 was now $7 and was just too much to run on a car that I considered a DD for summer. So, especially after moving to savage, 111 was much harder to get, and I switched to E-85. I've been running it since then. I have a station down here off 18, and am still working on finding more stations, but it's nice to have that corn gas at less cost then before. I also am a person who want's all the power, all the time. I don't like switching maps, and driving around with half a setup. If I put something together, then I want everything I can get outta it. when I was on 111/26-28 psi, car made 371db/509MAP. Now, on E-85, costing me LESS, and boost now able to run up to 36-40 psi, car made 533db/62xMAP. More boost, more power, less money per gallon...no brainer here! I plan on tuning with e-85 once again on the new setup next spring. Car runs cooler too!
