E85 flex tune for 350

do you have access to the results, Interested in the torque and HP gains possible. Considering the bulk price or Torco it might be compelling.

What additional results beyond the graph are you looking for? Some of the tracks I go to don't have race fuel and I've considered just getting a couple barrels and transporting in cans, but decided to go with Race Gas for now. It works out a little less than race fuel per gallon and will be easier to deal with for me.

just graphs, if it also helps a bit down low I would run 98 on the street.

The graph is what I posted........showing all three runs.....91, 93, 98

Do you mean your considering race fuel over octane booster or E85?
Here's my only issue with 93 and E85. I live in a small town and the one gas station sells 93 Sunoco but I can guarantee it's probably old because people today want the cheap shit. So the 93 just sits for who knows how long. Second I'm just 10 miles from Toledo Ohio and I literally have 50 plus stations to choose from but it's the same. Not many people buy the 93 or the E85 and I'm afraid the fuel is stale. I'd rather buy race fuel in 55 gallon drums and add it to my 93 or keep buying the torco octane booster if it's proven on the dyno.

Im considering going with a 5 gallon Torco should the car respond to it as it brings the price down to like 43 cents an per ounce

I have run Torco but I am not sure I trust it to boost octane to 105.

It will also leave a brown residue on your plugs .I am not sure if that has any ill effects on the plugs but my tech always asks me when I have fouled plugs if I have been running Torco.....again

It's interesting that the e85 pumps don't require the fuel vapor sucking apparatus that normal gas nozzles do, at least in California.

I should add Ngauge to that equation. Pretty amazing device.

What do you mean

Do tell more. Have you had it dyno'd? I need to see your car.

In CA, I don't know about elsewhere, the fuel discharge nozzles on the gas pumps have a costly piece that seals against the car's fuel filler pipe so as the gasoline flows in the vapors are sucked back into the pump rather than escaping into the atmosphere. I used e85 for the first time a few days ago and the pump had just a plain old nozzle. Apparently the amount of hydrocarbons released by the 15% gasoline component is so minimal stations are not required to trap it.

No, I haven't dyno'ed it. I've only had this setup for a few days so I'm still getting familiar with it and haven't run straight e85 yet. I couldn't wait so I topped off the existing 91 with five gal. of e85 at $2.15 a gal. My Ngauge indicates it is e47 at this dillution. Driveability is perfect.

does Torco have MMT? Seems like all their competitors do, and most off the shelf too. It is kinda nasty, despite all the BS about it being safe their are engineering reports that it does clog and gunk up plugs, sensors, and cats. It may not be as fast as unleaded but it does not run clean. I will check on Torco but if it has MMT i am done with it.
