[QUOTE="04sleeper, post: 9193980, member: 34911"] Well, the timing and the cooling effects is where the HP comes from. He was already paying $6 per gallon for the 100 Octane anyway so that's why he kept the same boost. Your mileage will go down but you must have one hell of a neighborhood. 160-180 miles is a long way to drive out of a neighborhood! All kidding aside. What don't you understand about the benefit? We are comparing E85 @ $2 per gallon that performs better than C16 race gas @ $11-$14 per gallon. Without the side effects of C16. Like killing your O2 sensors and your wallet! For a blown Cobra you are running around with a tune/boost level that gets you close to the limit of regular pump gas. You gain ZERO cooling effect with pump gas as well. Just the saftey margin of the 105 Octane alone outweighs running regular Dino Gas. I guess you don't like Horsepoer then? :shrug: Or having a saftey margin to keep your engine alive longer? :shrug: Or being able to make more than 1 pass without worring about heatsoak? :shrug: The list goes on and on! I'm sorry but if you have E85 at that many locations and are not running it in your boosted Cobra then you are crazy! Either that or you have stock in oil or support the Middle East. And lets just say you can't find a gas station with E85, then just get a flip chip or carry your tuner with you. Flip over to the gasoline tune while pumping. The you don't have to EVER worry about running out of gas. If you run out of gas running E85 then your dumb. Sorry. There's no excuse. It's just like running out of gas with gasoline. It's the same thing. Piss poor planning. Sounds like an excuse to me. And you know what they say about excuses. It's OK. Keep running your Fossil Fuel and making [B]no[/B] [B]power[/B] with [B]no octane [/B]and I'll keep running my Corn making [B]more power [/B]and [B]high octane[/B]. Oh, I'm burning cleaner and helping the enviorment too. :burnout: Cheers. :beer: [/QUOTE]
