That's what I would also like to know.

At lower RPM, 2500~ quite noticeable with it's whistle, at higher RPM you can't hear it at all, just exhaust.

I'll try get some videos up on youtube at some stage to give you an idea, last time I tried my gopro only went for 5 minutes and cut off lol..

Would running e85 get some gains with this kit? Also, would it significantly help with temps? I don't really want to vent my hood and fenders and all that. How much cooler does e85 burn?

Absolutely! Ethanols thermal heat of latency (ability to remove heat) is 3X greater than that of gasoline. It will run much cooler, netting power, and its resistance to pre-det is insane.

Lets put it this way. My buddies supra has an E85 tune and a 91 octane tune. He makes 650whp on his E tune and only 500 on his 91.

You will pick up a good 20whp out of that kit and it will be much safer. You will however need bigger injectors and a 340lph pump.

And the smell of burnt E85 is like rum. Delicious. :happydance:

As TopgunZ said, the thermal heat of latency is far greater than that of gasoline and has a high octane rating. This also allows you to run much more advanced timing without risking detonation.

Ethanol does have its drawback. It is a lot harding on the fuel system as a whole.

Now that we can tune VVEL with Ecutek, I can probably get more power out of the kit with my LTHs as well.

I have had E85 in my car for over a year and the only thing I seen was the same that Phunk seen in his. There is a bit of black material in the bottom of the pump. I have identified where this comes from and it is not going to hurt anything. Except you might want to change/clean your fuel filter after about a year.

Phunks been on E for over 4 years.

Are you running e85 with this kit?

Yes

What kind of numbers are you putting down? Also, anything we should be aware of that we haven't discussed? Are you running the stock cooler or the Frozen Boost one?

So let me get this strait I can run E85 with just injectors and a 340LP pump? The stock lines seals ,etc are fine. An not saying I'd gain anything being NA just curious

I have never ran this kit yet. I have designed an air to air setup and dyno it on Wednesday. Shooting for 500+whp.

I have a frozen boost cooler for sale if you want to upgrade to that. It would really help with temp control.

Yes. You could pick up about 5whp with timing advancement.

So does your tune still suck? I was going to order one of these kits in the near future but this thread is starting to shy me away from it. I didn't want to have to get a custom tune.

Why would you not want a custom tune? A tune just for your car will always be better than a tune for every car!
