Not a single hp.

If someone shows gains going from pump to ethanol they should probably spend more time on their pumpgas map.

Now 91octane is a different story, they're gains to be had !

That's quite a bold statement. We regularly have even 2.0L 4 bangers pick up a whopping 5hp on E85, even being at MBT on pump gas. Does the "fuel is naturally oxygenated" mean anything to you?

Jon at Z1 has had quite a few in the 10hp range. Guess he needs to learn to tune

that's what i hear is common too (7-10). like you said it would be a good $ to hp ratio, but if there isn't any hp to be made, it's a waste of money.

It resists detonation, and runs cooler. I wouldn't say a wast of money.

Because of the alcohol/gasoline mixture, E85 has a rough estimate octane rating of between 105-113 octane depending on the mixture. Also the alcohol in E85 has a HUGE cooling property associated with it as well. E85 has a lot of the cooling properties that you also find with Water Meth Injection. (www.enginebasics.com/methinjection) It is great at lowering intake temperatures, lowering engine block and head temperatures, and basically doing everything that can help suppress detonation. So with E85 being SO amazing, why don’t we all convert over and start using it?

E85 burns much cooler, thus helping to keep Oil (And other) temps down. and due to that property, it also gives you the ability to play with the timing more without the risk of detonation.
