What is cold start like on e85? My car takes 2-3 cranks since doing the PW surge, and I dot have faith in my odyssey if it was going to be much more than that.

Hi Henz. I have not noticed and difference in starting my car and this is the second winter it will see on full time E85. Please note I do fill with E Flex and they generally run around 70% Ethenol during he colder months.

they will be popping up at alot of united's throughout the year !! they will update their website as they do it, so if a servo isn't on the website atm, it doesn't mean they wont be getting e85

yes on E flex but tuned during warmer months. I think Nizpro have allowed for a bit of play as I dont have a Summer/winter tune. Possum will be able to answer that better than me. To be quite honest I could not be farked having to change tunes if Ethenol levels change by 10%. I don't have a tester. I fill her and drive away.

With premium unleaded mine starts straight away.... with E85 in the mornings it will take about 10 secs to start...

Possum do you mean machine the 0.5 cover?

RAPID I reckon that nizpro car would be struggling to make more boost if its got the stock cover and wheel (I forget what car it was already!!). Also depending on the injectors you often see AFR curves like that and that's due to the standard speed density calibration. Possum will verify that it's unchanged.
