Any updates?

Was going to ask you the same thing.

My engine has to come out of the car this weekend, few things going on thats put this project on hold for a little while. Once the new ecu goes in il be back to running E85

The race gas vs E85 issue is the reason I'm keen to back-to-back test 110RON Martini vs E85. I'm aiming to do this prior to the Xmas holiday period.

Sunoco costs me $10/litre...how keen do you think i am.

Do you have enough injector for it, Paul?

my new runners from Hypertune have injector bosses on both top and bottom.

two sets of 1000cc injectors should cover it.

6 lengths of garden hose will do the job too and far cheaper :(

Seen a few highpowered cars running E85 on Friday night. Smells sweet exiting the exhaust :P

Im keen to get my car tuned on it now.

Any updates Anthony?

Whats your economy like now?

I am in the middle of changing ecu's.. so i am back on 98. last tank i got 460km's so worked it out to be 13 litres per hundred with 98.. with e85 my best was about 420km's to a tank.

The servo just past the Meccano set near Landsvale is refusing to sell E85 to the public . They claim (counter jockeys) that the government won't let them do so and that the company (Manildra Group ?) is only selling to people with certification .

Any idea whats going on ?

A .

There is another servo (albeit the same company) a few minutes away that sells E85 (corner of Ferndell St and Rawson Rd, South Granville). I might swing by over the weekend and see what is the G-O with the E85.

Hi GT , there was an Asian lady and an Indian looking feller behind the counter and no power on earth was gonna get me the E85 pump keys .

I tried to explain to them that all I wanted was 4 liters but the answer was no no and no . They said that the last time I got my 4 liters was a mistake and it should not have been sold to me at all .

Just for the record I had ~ 40L of straight Shell 98 ULP and wanted to make it "E10" . I could not get through to them that 4 of 40 is 10% (yeah ok 4 of 44) and no I didn't want the usual low grade E10 mouthwash .

I left contact details but not confident I'll get a return call or message .

I think we need to find a way of accepting responsibility for what we buy otherwise the alconazis are going to make life difficult .
