Yeah, but you are filling up everyday lol
Can you move the location of the intercooler?

I maybe fill mine up 4 times a year. Lol
I may drive my car a little more than that. lololol
guy is complaining about mpg on E85 and has another thread about going turbo/bigger blower to make 700+hp. In that thread seems set on turbo despite asking about a blower and if so it pretty much makes this thread irrelevant
I won't ever install a killer chiller either. I don't want to tap into my ac. If it's hot out I generally don't drive it. I do plenty of highway cruising with e70 and e85. I never check mileage, but it really doesn't seem that bad.
I haven't made up my mind. Isn't that the point of a forum with other people that have your car is to ask for advice?
Call me weird but I like going to the e85 station. Usually run into some cool cars there and end up talking shop.

Probably. The other issue I have is that isn't close to me.
I was probably going to get methanol injection seeing it has all of the benefits from E85 without any of the drawbacks.
The drawback is never run out and never lose a pump.
i've been considering going e85, but at my current performance level it's pointless. my car has an upper pulley, cai, O/R x pipe with magnaflows, and has been tuned. i estimate it's at around 14lbs of boost max.
the car is stupid fast, and has serious traction issues. i recently discovered that my intercooler pump is bad, and may have been the whole time i've had the car. if so, i suspect it'll be even faster when i get the new one in.
what i'm getting at is that IF i'm making around 500rwhp now, i don't know wtf i'd do with 700+ in a street car...

Who cares about fuel mileage unless you DD your Cobra? I didn't buy it for fuel mileage. It's all about smiles per gallon. I would go E85 and twice on Sunday over methanol injection jmo.

You think a eaton cobra is stupid fast? Race a e85 any size twinscrew/tvs cobra and see how you do.

for a street car, yes it's stupid fast.
there's no doubt that anything with heavy mods would beat me in a race, but i'm not trying to have a race car. if i'm already traction limited, more power isn't really going to do me any good.

You're having traction issues with a 475whp cobra? You Need more tire! I can make my 619whp dead hook 2nd with my nittos
Had my killer chiller since version 2.. never had any issues and I have aero heat soak during the summer months... plus my a/c is running all the time while I'm driving the cobra..Lol
i don't know what my whp is, but yes i have traction issues. i can break em lose on an onramp going 60 if i'm not careful with the throttle.
when i get the rear end back in the car, i'm putting my 315 nittos on. we'll see if that helps.

Something isn't right then. Suspension or tires. When I made 455/479 rwhp I could dead hook first gear on a 5-10 mph roll. That was with toyo r888.
Generally, depending on road and temps I can full hook second gear on a 40 roll. I'm running a tvs blower on 21 psi and e85.
