Shell here just got some too. Its at $3.29 last I checked. Its going to make my high-compression Supra dreams come true. >:D

I plan to run e85 when it starts getting a lil more common here in GA.

i already have the 1600cc's and twin fuel pumps ( stock with a 255 as suppliment controlled by the haltech )

what exactly does one need to convert to e-85? i heard all new lines and ----, that true? and do you still tune the same? (14.7-12.1/boost)

Re: Fianlly NEW E-85 station close to Seattle in WA!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Have to tune quite a bit richer... Stoich is much lower.

E85 contains only 72% of the energy (BTUS) on a gallon-for-gallon basis compared to gasoline

Old news, we've had E-85 for a couple years in the mid-west. Currently about $3.19/gal.

doesn't it kinda cancel out the price saving then?

Re: Fianlly NEW E-85 station close to Seattle in WA!!!!!!!!!!!
 

they must have forgot to tell you that its also 104 octane

Fuel economy does not drop as much as might be expected in turbocharged engines based on the specific energy content of E85 compared to gasoline, in contrast to the previously-reported reduction of 23.7% reduction in a 60:40 blend of gasoline to E85 for one non-turbocharged, fuel-injected, non-FFV. The reason for this non-intuitive difference is that the turbocharged engine seems especially well-suited for operation on E85, for it in effect has a variable compression ratio capability, which is exactly what is needed to accommodate varying ethanol and gasoline ratios that occur in practice in an FFV. At light load cruise, the turbocharged engine operates as a low compression engine. Under high load and high manifold boost pressures, such as accelerating to pass or merge onto a highway, it makes full use of the higher octane of E85. It appears that due to the better ignition timing and better engine performance on a fuel of 100 octane, the driver spends less time at high throttle openings, and can cruise in a higher gear and at lower throttle openings than is possible on 100% premium gasoline. In daily commute driving, mostly highway, 100% E85 in a turbocharged car can hit fuel mileages of over 90% of the normal gasoline fuel economy. Tests indicate approximately a 5% increase in engine performance is possible by switching to E85 fuel in high performance cars.
