Jeremy Member 112 Member For: 16y 8m 26d Gender: Male Location: Perth mindaz Posted 10/08/14 12:26 AM Share Posted 10/08/14 12:26 AM I'm about to get a e85 tune put in my car and currently running PW stage 2 kit.. It's a fgf6 with the upgraded f6 turbo.. Just wondering what I'm gonna run out of first.. Turbo puff or cooler flow?The car has 400rwkw now, hoping for 440-450rwkw on e85.. Will the stage 2 cooler get there or will The turbo run out of puff first?And does a stage 3 PW cooler core fit up to a stage 2 piping kit?The predigamet I'm in is its $2400 for e85. If I can't get decent numbers above 400, I'll have to do the turbo, intercooler aswell.. Which means +$6k and then I guess the box will go which will be another $3.5k.. So don't want to start the e85 upgrade if it's gonna cost me ~$9k for 50-80rwkwCheers all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racer or Dyno queen ?Stage 2 should do the job.howeverJust my opinion but anything over 350 for a daily is overkill.All you are burning is money and will still get smoked if you cant get traction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on specs but it was maxed out for that turbo.. I'm trying to achieve a 10 sec pass.. Best I could do with 400rwkw was 11.5 but I snapped my tail shaft on the second run.. Since then I got a chromoly one so should be able to launch a little harder.. 440rwkw should get me a 10.9 pass. E85 seems to be the cheapest next step for that.. But like I said if it means I need turbo and intercooler upgrade.. It won't be so cheap.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
