Spooler; your build thread is nothing short of being very inspirational :tup:
As mine is in the beginning stages, you’ve vested a lotta time & dinero into laying the groundwork for potentially the best build foundation :tiphat:
As mine is still sitting in the heat soaked garage, Now more motivated to get the ball rolling :happydance:

Ghostvette 09-03-2020 08:24 AM

Congrats Spooler :tup:

I'd ask for a ride this weekend, but I want to be able to function all weekend..... I'd be at max adrenaline dump and I'd be incoherent all weekend.... :rofl2:

It will be a couple of weeks before I can head up.

I can hardly wait to get the car back and go for a spin so I can remind myself how stupid fast it is. Ah, the trials and tribulations of a boost junky.

Don't really know. The motor is done and the installation is almost complete so once that is done I will take it back to the other shop to finish reinstall electrical dash, ECU and other stuff. Then I will take it back Seb to finish up and tune! So yes I am in hell!!!

Is Phunk still making his intercooler for the 370z? I don't see them on his webpage anymore.

He was in May but I haven’t asked since. I don’t think it ever made it to the website at all.

Sounds like Vince got to take my car out for a street drive this time. I hope he enjoyed it as much as Brian did. Brian had a blast. I will get Brian
to drive it again this time to make sure all is well before I pick it up.

I wish I could make it. I would have loved to give you guys rides so you could experience the craziness. It does take a bit to soak it all in. It's a feeling that is hard to explain. Folks would sure been looking at us funny. A bunch of older farts just standing around giggling like a bunch of school girls.

Sitting here wondering how this new build will feel compared to the last one. I guess I will find out soon enough.

Go ahead and order you a couple pallets of e90, that way you’ll be set for a little while :driving:

:iagree:

Where do you actually order E90? I did a google search, and all I found were drums at truly insane prices. Is there a place where you can actually get this stuff for a reasonable price?

Message sent; as Jay may know of a place near you.
All is made in one facility :tup:

It is race ethanol but is much cheaper than race gas. Ignite Red (E90) is $300 for a 55 gallon drum plus shipping. The shipping can hurt. LOL

If you are paying, I will order some more. I have 2- 55 gallon drums and of coarse some was used while tuning the car.

Not a bad price. Only $5.45 a gallon, plus shipping. :rolleyes:

Yup, race gas, depending on what you get, was running $11 to $18 dollars a gallon for VP when I was buying it back in the 90's. No idea what it is now.

It was $215 to ship 2- 55 gallon drums to MA and they have a forklift which means it is cheaper. Lift gate truck delivery is more. So, $7.40 a gallon.

Hotrodz 09-09-2020 08:18 AM

I used to pay $360 a barrel and my guy is out of business so the cheapest I can get it is $420 a barrel.

Not too bad considering all you have to deal with if you order it direct. I would pay that IF I could get it local. However, I can not.

Less then $300 for me, but I have to go pick it up

LOL, that is from distributor. The only quote he gave me to my residence put it at $600 a barrel. I called several places. The distributor in Las Vegas wanted 500 and another in Lake Havasu City wanted 550 for Ignite e85 not e90. I got the best price from Snail Performance in Phoenix at the $420 price. Torco, which is out of Phoenix makes a similar e90 and also carries Ignite e90 and the price is 420 as well. I will probably run pump e85 but I won't get it from the pump but the transfer station in Las Vegas. It will come e80 + - a couple of percent. It will be clean. I may add some Boostane to it to get the octane level up.

We run Boostane in the Miata. It was 118 whp on 91 and dynoed at 160 on Boostane!

I will daily drive on Pump E85 which is E77 from where I get it. I will limit my boost to 17psi. If I turn it up I will be on Ignite E90. I just need it to be very consistent for that level. E85 detonation may not be detected. I am not taking any chances.
It is more expensive to replace an engine than to nut up and run the good stuff when needed.
