If you add 10% 98 to the E85 you have adjusted the ethanol content by the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 24/10/12 06:31 AM Author Share Posted 24/10/12 06:31 AM Trash away! I love the off topic stuff... it's my thread so who's gonna say anything! Just keep it nice that's all I was having a think about the E85 thing too... my drive home from work at the moment is just over an hour. So I have plenty of time to think and to be completely honest running around with Jerry cans and trying to get my car back to 5kms DTE and then get to the race track that is 140km from my apartment etc... I just couldn't be bothered. Honest too hard basket.Believe me though when I say, if E85 was available somewhere, somewhat convenient and near where I live we wouldn't even be having this discussion...Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you add 10% 98 to the E85 you have adjusted the ethanol content by the same.Tune plays a big roll,I have 20psi in the low/mid tapering off to 16psi by 4000rpm where it makes peak power(353rwkw@16psi) and holds the lot till red line.....very aggressive tune which the BTR despises haha.20psi tapering to 17-18ish will get you a easy 10 on pump fuel Jack with moderate to aggressive timing,I run Nulon octane booster for safety margin and haven't had pingisking ever.

Posted 24/10/12 07:25 AM Author Share Posted 24/10/12 07:25 AM All good mate!It will actually be interesting when I get to the start line and have all the variables somewhat covered... rather than having a quick glance at a couple, still not doing anything about it though and paying no attention to the others lolWe are working towards it GTX I just would hate to have a major failure so far from 'home'... even though I have proper full roadside assist that will get the car home. It still does over 600kms a week if I drive it anywhere on the weekend and is my daily driver.Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 24/10/12 07:31 AM Author Share Posted 24/10/12 07:31 AM Here is the dyno sheet from the car when first tuned. Everyone loves a dyno sheet! lolI only have this one. It shows road speed rather than RPM and as you can see the tune is certainly more inclined to a nice, easy and steady climb to the top even though the GTX has enough fitness to sprint to the top from the bottom Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
