There are so many variables that change the final outcome, I'm still learning new things everyday!

The fuel is a big one, one reason I started adding it to the finished builds thread because people with much lower boost were hitting high numbers but were on e85. Helps show a better perspective into how someone reached it.

Fuel can definitely play a factor as well.

Fuel is everything for a high powered tune. This is why E85 is a dyno killer. I'm lucky to have 93 octane in my area, but would love a E85 pump.

Someone once told me, "if I want more power i'll do a shell 104 octane tune".

Replied, "Yea try taking the tune out of town tell me how that works out lol".

I want a tune for the average pump. Hunting down $7 gallon fuel with limited places to fuel isn't my idea of a weekend warrior. IMO, That's more like a dyno queen that drives his car to event once a month.

Has there been any reported issues with running e85? Either with the tune, longevity, or overall performance? Just did some research and looks to be very cheap to do, and I have ONE station that has it about 5 minutes from my house. Super intriguing with the ridiculous numbers people seem to be getting with it!!
