If its pushed over 20-23psi on race gas, sure you can make over 400-450whp

its not to bad i only lost about 60 to 70 miles on a full tank compared to pump gas. I think its well worth, i have had to many problems with getting bad gas.

its 100% possible just run methanol injection

and u know a 55 gallon drum of e85 is only like $120... get that delivered to your house twice a month... you'll be good. and it'll be cheaper than running 91

I would look at either the Silver Surfer (talk to TheShodan) or if you have some money to blow, get an S256. I love mine ...check sig. By the way, those of you against E85, i find it to be very similar to running gasoline except i lost about 60miles of range on the freeway and about 50 in town. Its nothing that can't be overcome...seeing as E85 is plentiful in the midwest. Its totally worth the switch if your area has it
