Guilt-toy Now Running On E85 !


Recommended Posts

United is 10c a litre more expensive and will get you slightly less K's but smells much better than eflex, not harsh but sweet.

The United made slightly more powers at less boosts when I tuned on it yesterday. In the end I chose United due to the pump being local.

can you list the results of power and boost with each fuel? did united not make any more power when running equal boost?

cheers

United made more power but the tuner decided enough was enough. Stock motors can only take this sort of punishment for so long. The compressor was well out of efficiency by this stage and although I was keen to keep going, he didn't want a piston out the block. Fair enough, I have to trust his judgement.

i live 2mins from springy caltex, however the cheltanham rd and clayton one are only 15mins away so not exactly far. Having small dash 7s on 8psi actuator which i know will struggle to hold high boost, perhaps united will be the better option if it can make more power with less boost. Who tuned your car? how much more duty are you using on your injectors on united, 10%?

Cihan (Etuner) has always tuned my car, no-one else would touch it originally.

I have the laptop and tune here but I have no idea how to find out injector duty as I just changed to the fcon vpro, and still learning the software. I'm guessing around 80% on the 1000's, it would only be around 2% more if that at a guess.

Got some for the GTR drag challenge next week, 81% from Rozelle. Still WAY better than anything from Caltex

STILL? There must be something in this. Remember my last lot ? It was E77. Wherever Dave gets it from seem's like the go... but oh so far away!

Rozelle, pull your finger out!

Hey guys, i thought instead of me making a new thread i would just ask in this one. I'm doing a DE+TT on my 300ZX which is on 10.8:1 Compression, i plan to use most of the stock TT bits on my NA except for the injectors, fuel pump and ecu. Can the varying blends (winter/summer) be tuned around so the car can run both? obviously it won't be optimal but can it be done? On 98 octane the car needs 15 degrees of timing removed from the 2000~4000rpm area of the map trailing to 5 degrees removed up top so i'm hoping E85 will help with this?. I'm looking at running around 18psi to see what i can get out of the stock turbos. They usually make 250rwkw on 16psi on pump fuel so i'm hoping mine will make a bit more at 18psi and E85.
