There are 3 of us doing this....2 daily driven, one being tracked as we type. I hate to say it, but we doing very well.

PM me, or you can call Tony@FI.....we can talk shop or he can get you set up.We can give you realistic expectations on what this car can and cant do, I live your goals daily, no speculations, no google, no BS.

Happy boosting my friend! We got your back!
Yes you're precisely the type of dicklord that keeps me off the FI forums. You're running E85 at a lower pressure with an E85 map and you're telling this guy there's no risk in a FI conversion. Seriously, what is your problem? Are you trying to trick someone into blowing up their motor because if so, you are a **** of the highest order. My bet is you just love hearing yourself talk and want an excuse to post your numbers. **** off.

Guy who initially posted this, please do your homework and don't listen to dickwagging asslords like this dude. Unfortunately, the FI community here has become a cesspool of jerkoffs looking for bragging rights and not people looking to offer real advice. I'm done with this thread but I'll leave you with this:

-FI conversions are risky no matter what.

-My guy with 20+ years of working on Z cars says that you shouldn't take the VQ motor over 550whp on pump gas without building the motor or you are playing with fire. You do not have forged internals. You are not a GT-R. Do what you will but ask yourself how much juice you really need for what you use the car for.

"I live your goals" lmao what a ******* douchebag

And I am sorry, but it is what it is. I daily drive these power levels, unless it is rainy as ****, I will run wastegate(8-9 psi).

I am sorry this upsets you, I really don't know what you are upset about. Like I posted earlier, my comment was directed at the beating of the dead GTM horse, not anything or anyone else.

e85 makes alot possible, along with anything, I hope to find the breaking point on this engine. But as I have learned, no issues of yet, no signs of anything. If it is an option for the OP, then great, I know how to get him to 600hp daily drive-able.

But it is not as simple as fill up with e85 and go. This is where I can help, provide input and share my experiences.

I am sorry if I had done anything to upset you, I am not trying to come of as a pompous *******. But if he dreams of a 600hp Z, it is out there. I have no idea if it is an option for him.

BY years end there will be many e85 Z's running crazy numbers and it will be a ton of fun.

Like I said.....I am very sorry if I said anything at all to offend you. I am just over the dogpiling on GTM, as well as the bickering. We are all trying to do what we can, how we can, I figured I might know something about running those numbers. This is all.
