E85 allows you to change the timing to a range not possible to run on standard gasoline due to knock. Without a tune to take advantage of it, you should not see any difference in power. It's like putting 94 octane in a Prius.

28* still makes more power with E85 over pump gas. I added zero extra ignition advance and still saw 5-6hp gained. |

seems all e85 for n/a will make is 6-10whp. i ordered myself injectors and plan on getting the car tuned mid october. i might grab the plenum mod while i'm at it, so it will be hard to tell what i truly make from e85.

not sure if a plenum mod would be able to squeeze me out more power.

Only if you have GtR injectors. And untill tuned i wouldn't go WOT as you'll be pretty rich. But ok enough to drive on, you're not gonna flood it.
