So are there any mods required to fuel lines (change rubber lies etc) or is it just a matter of filling up with e85 and getting a tune?

Mods on my car is every thing bar rods, also walbro in tank pump and surge tank with Bosch 044, so assuming everything I have read I just need to take a Jerry of e85 then fill up and get a tune, is this right?

Fixed.

Just have to find the time to get to Bruce's, when he saw my run at the drags he said bring it down for an e85 tune and run 6sec 1/8th mile, might try to get down soon the take it back to the track and fingers crossed for a 10sec 1/4 mile lol

Lol I see what you mean exactly but I've always had a liking for pitlane. Never heard a bad story from them (not saying I've heard one from nizpro) but yeh always liked micks work. Idk I'll decide closer to when it happens lol

My car is at autotech at the moment, the fuel lines are cracked on the outside (not swollen and look ok on the inside) and are being replaced with E85 compliant lines.

Have done the fuel line in the tank aswell just as a precaution. Not sure if they were cracked before but I highly doubt it as it would have been noticed when installing surge tank 6 months ago.

But e85 would have to be the easiest unopened way to get to 350 once little turbo is maxed.

Can do it for about 3k staino. That's with p/west surge, 044 and xspurts. What I like about going this way over the 35/40 is I won't lose any bottom end and have the safety of a surge for track days.
