And, now that's getting to my question! I hate to ride the MS3, but through my experiences people on that platform really increase their timing. By as much as 5-6* advanced @ redline over similar 93 octane tunes. I know that with boost it's a different animal, and increasing timing along with boost is a 2 headed benefit.

At what point do we see diminishing returns on timing advance in regards to actual gains on this platform, and I'm curious to see how meth injection or E blends could help this.

Im interested in a blend, because ideally you wouldn't need to change much, if anything, in regards to fuel system.

I am na with a few special bolt on's and I am out of injector on 91. a 255 is an easy relatively cheap add on that settles the pump away and I am going to need bigger injectors anyway, so once i finish up with the cam and head gasket change I'm just going to throw in a surge pump with a 400lph pump in it (super overkill but I may add a small turbo) and some bigger injectors. The nylon/hard line on the z is fine for e85 it is the same stuff all the flex fuel vehicles use. There isn't much to change and the motor LOVES timing so from what I have seen there really is no point to not run full e85 (unless you are purely concerned with keeping fuel costs down lol)
