Thread: Some baseline testing e-85 sr16 pistons

daaamn thats a nice change in numbers

Damn that e85 shines up top! How did you guys go about draining the tank? Using a walbro? I have to try it this year!

10hp up top and quite a bit under the curve too, I am so temped to go e85. I have not been to the dyno yet, but i will go on pump gas first. As i think i will need new injectors to go e85 anyway.

Originally we pumped out the 93oct by putting a hose to the regulator and into a gas tank, we were affraid to let it run dry and possibly damage the pump,so we left some gas in there and added the e-85 just to test if its worth it.
Since it was we knew we would have to fill up on e-85 and run out the tank till we knew it was 100% e-85.
We redynoed the car.
Last time it made 211whp on e-85 mix with some 93oct.
This time,it was pure e-85 and bumped up the power to 215 whp solid. Tq is at 162.
We hope to make the intake and header change soon.

Now you see why I switched to E85 when I did. Can't beat it for the price.

Just tried out some custom secondaries with an ssac header. Car jumped from 204 whp on 93octane tuned to 211whp on 93oct with secondaries and tune.

E85 testing numbers coming soon.

Here's a video of one of the runs.pump gas testing the modified secondary pipes on a ssac header.
204whp was the before cooler temps then.
Tonight's temps. 93 degrees.
Final numbers 211whp and 157tq

On e-85 we should see 221ish whp and about 170 tq

Car sounds healthy as can be. Keep up the good work brotha!

Pictures of modded secondaries?

Good numbers, keep pushing.
