[QUOTE="MalcolmV8, post: 14522064, member: 8854"] I don't think that proves E85 is cooling the intake charge. I'm not saying it isn't, because it might be. However isn't the extra power because of the ethanol and because the fuel is so oxygenated? You are right though the fuel definitely makes more power. I've personally switched from 91 with methanol injection to E85 and changed nothing but stoich in the tune and picked up 70 ~ 75 whp. I find it hard to believe that's because the E85 was cooling the intake charge. In fact the fuel doesn't even touch the majority of the intake charge does it? The injector squirts it on the back of the valve right before it opens and as it opens the first part of the charge going in takes in the fuel... at least that's how I understand it. I could be off on that. Whatever the case may be it certainly makes the power. [/QUOTE]
