What is wrong with that car on the dyno chart. 466hp but 620tq? That car must've been pulling timing real bad or something. I've never seen a hp curve that flat.Old test but cool to see, shows you can add power with just E85. This is my brother's '04 Cobra powered '86 GT.
Its a C4 auto car, but the 3 graphs represent 1) the first year the car was converted to mod-motor with a loose converter 2) tight converter on mix 93/110 gas and 3) after draining the fuel cell and putting in E85 and adding 30%, no timing or other changes.
You can see the E85 alone adds decent power (usually 30-40hp range in most applications), even before tuning and the car also runs at least 10* cooler.
I doubt 75-100 ever even with tuning, probably expect 50rwhp for a converted and tuned E85 GT500 in my estimate. But more benefits than just power.
