Up next: Full E85 conversion.

I am lucky enough to have tons of E85 stations around me so I'm going to run around on the stuff. The car isn't a DD so I'm not worried about being stranded, plus I will have an emergency pump gas tune to fall back on just in case.

-Upgrade Bosch 645cc injectors to Injector Dynamics 1000cc injectors

-Upgrade 255lph fuel pump to 340lph. Not sure which brand yet. Was going to go with Aeromotive but apparently they have corrosion issues so with E85, they're out. Probably either Walbro or Deatschwerks.

-Aggressive re-tune for E85 and re-tune for pump gas as well.

What I'm expecting:
-Minor power bump. Since I'm running static boost with the SC, I'm not expecting a huge bump in WHP like the turbo guys do when they dial up the boost.

-Lower ambient engine temperatures = less power fade over time = fewer heat concerns.

-Most importantly, detonation-proofing the engine.
