Just wondering if anyone has had success with e85 I'm running haltech sports 2000 running two maps pulp and soon flick of a switch to e85 only if u guys think so with experience my tuner says it will benefit a little how much could I expect currently running un ported head forged engine gt35/40 low mount on 6 boost m/fold 311rwkw 16psi just ordered ported head from bullet cylinder heads thicker cosmetic 1.9 mm to lower comp from 8:5.1 to 8 ish should b able to take boost up another 6 to 8 psi touch wood and big camtech cam revs from 3200 to 7800 some ideas on diff fuel would b great ta
I'm a little lucky the woodcroft caltex has it I'm only 5 mins from there a 50 to 100 Hp increase that's def worth it even just for racing thank u on ur info
How much did the head cost from bullet cylinder heads if you don't mind me asking?
-pumba- and MBHSV5 are running the Caltex eflex without any issues, CHUBSPT is running the united e85 and I'm currently in the process of converting mine to united e85.
Jobby is friend of mine so a reasonably good price he is supplying the head as well so it's not bad how many united servos in s a have the e85 ps haven't picked the head up yet getting it next fri so don't know the bill what should I pay this has the 1mm oversize valves and all the goodies
dont put caltex **** in your car is called bio-eflex because the ethanol content ranges from 70-85% at any given time of the year
the only relatively consistent ethanol to use is united which is actually E85
I agree but I'm miles away from the united 4 to 5 mins from caltex woodcroft I'm running two maps so pump for street e85 for track that will b the united 1 thanks for the heads up
i run united E85 in my car, the caltex varies to much more my liking... But there is plenty of people on here running the caltex e85 and are running fast times. Speak to your tuner about it
If its tune for a low ethanol content it will be fine. But as above, talk to your tuner.
I don't know what a bullet head would be worth, but I'm interested to know!
I know the bullet cylinder head with all the goods large valves flow around 700 Hp at about 18 psi then more with more boost its around 2400 I think cheaper if u use ur head I want to keep my standard one ill talk to my tuner regarding e85 thanks everyone.
We run Caltex E85 in our VE Calais-V. Have used united as well and haven't noticed any difference. You will notice a difference over winter though, as the blend will drop closer to 70%. My suggestion would be to get your tuner to map a tune at about 77-78%. This will mean the car will never be too lean or to rich. Also stick to the same servo for a consistent product.
His name is Marcus from bullet cylinder heads 82618813 tell him u spoke to big troy he knows me well he is one of the owners guys great info on the e85 thanks
You won't really notice a difference in the ethanol content fluctuation in the VE because it has flex fuel and adjusts accordingly like I mentioned the PS2000 is capable of doing also.
Tuxedo u know some quality stuff do u work at grange autoworxs or just a customer awesome knowledge thank u lookin forward to meeting all u guys one day.
