I'm planning on switching over to E85, on a Whipple SC '17 Mustang, and am wondering what are your thoughts or experience on having E85 while also still having the stock cats installed?
I eventually plan to have the cats deleted once they seem to be going out, but in the mean time can I run E85 while I have cats? I've heard it speeds up the destruction of the stock cats, but then I've also heard it's not really having to do with E85 but also the oil you are running and the mixture of the E85 that speeds up destructions of cats?
I was thinking of eventually going with the MAK cat-delete and a cat back exhaust system. What are you guys experiences with E85 and cats? And what other possible options do you guys recommend when replacing the stock cat (either a straight delete or upgrade)? I've also heard the Kooks green cats are said to hold good with all the extra power, can anyone comment on this?
Honestly, if I didn't live where I lived at now I probably would had deleted the cat's right away but since that's not really a go-to option I'm kind of looking for alternatives (hence why I say I'll use them 'till they start going out, which I'm skeptical of doing).

EDIT: Thanks everyone for your input.
PS: Can anyone recommend a cat delete set up/exhaust system that is still fairly quite (if such a thing even exist) after the cat-delete?
