Where can you get E85 from? Ive never seen it. Personally I think its a scam anyway, E10 is just as expensive as regular would be anyway and you get less kms. And since they brought that in the difference between premium and regular has almost doubled. Bloodsuckers!

nah its not the same the e85 im running at the moment i bought from freedom fuels, its made by et racing fuels its a genuine 85% ethanol mixed with et racing 98racing fuel the eflex at the pump is 70-85% ethanol usually mixed with only regular unleaded octane is around the 105 area my e85 is up at about 110 but its $75 for 20lts!! dropping down to the pump version wont have to much affect as its basically the same stuff as in the states and they have no problem running big boost and timing numbers on it will work out a damn site cheaper aswell! less than a 1/3 the price

coming into summer I can only imagine the pump stuff should be right on the mark at 85%... it's only during the cooler months they'll drop the percentage as the **** can be a **** to start on a cold morning...

Yeh warm starts are perfect... but powercruise starts at 6 in the morning can leave the old starter motor a bit cranky and mr battery a bit down on the old +12 lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yo Rick, ended up putting a set of 910cc siemens in... those rochesters were up the ****. You'll be right Troy.. u'll be making more than enough power to not have to worry about not having enough... best thing is, you'll prob have the pump to yourself at the station for a while until everyone else clues on... and you'll hardly be out of pocket at only a dollar a litre. Niiiiiccee !! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Well I can tell you the stuff out of the pump is pretty good. Almost like tuning with Methanol. EGT's are super low and very interesting Lambda in the end. Ill be running it in my GTR and driving it daily to see how the constancy is from tank to tank.
