E85?

Ran 100 octane on +4.5 with considerable added pull. Just filed up with e85 still at +4.5 and car feels like stock again.
Too much a chicken to go higher on the boost although logic would tell me to do due to the composition of the e85.

The fuel tables can not compensate for E85 , you're car felt like stock bc it was running dangerously lean due to the E85 and was pulling timing! Do not run more than 20% ethanol on this motor without a tune ( No true tune exists so stick to regular fuel or race gas).

Would temporarily upping the boost help while my tank is filled with e85 or should I literally try to get it out of the system?

Prob safer to drain it out.
Not an E85 engine management system. Wrong fuel will cause all sorts of problems.

We're going to get together tonight.

We have a GTR, a couple Cobb/BMS 135/335s, BMS M4, possibly a 991 GT3, and potentially a few more. Bring your friends.

Lol good luck. I've done my share of street racing in the mid 90's with a awd 700 HP dsm. Not worth it anymore.
Be safe

Anyone local to pittsburgh? I'd love to get out meet some people and do some fun runs.

On another note I'm going to start fabbing my own down pipes and exhaust next week. Can't wait to see the results.

Im sorry for your loss.

I live in Oceanside and @Newguy123 lives in Carlsbad so it makes the most sense for you to come down here or meet somewhere off the 15. Thoughts?
