Not a single response given was remotely good until the first guy said on hell no. You need to learn to read JARblue. I screwed up by assuming that no negative responses to a straight up question were a green light and I was woefully wrong. I learned my lesson. But don't talk trash to me like you had some good answer I didn't respond to. You are no better than a troll right now.
Hello pot; meet kettle.

I'm talking about the 2nd and 3rd responses in your thread, which I have quoted for you again below. You need E-85 fuel, upgraded injectors and a tune. There are also optional flex fuel solutions available. And yet, based on those responses, you decided to just put E-85 in your stock car, completely ignoring the need for the other necessary upgrades (i.e. a tune and injectors). What on earth made you think that would be ok???

I think Facebook might be a better resource for you. I'm sure you can find someone to tell you you're doing it right regardless of the facts. Alternatively, you could reach out directly to ByThaBay since he is quite knowledgeable and obviously willing to help. The choice is yours. I recommend choosing wisely

There is a dyno sheet if you scroll through, the car made 310 whp.

Specialty Z offers a flexfuel kit that would make it much easier, but you can have separate 93 and E85 maps and just switch, but you have to run it way down low before switching w/o that kit.
