Not that I know of. I'm sure mine will go eventually. I flog the hell out of it at the track pretty regularly. And that's 600+ whp on stock internals. But of course that's one of the main reasons I went with e85.

I'm just treating it as an experiment at the point. How long can I beat on it at these power levels at the track before it fails? We'll see!
