Questions on fuel... a lot of them
I'm finally on the path of getting my car all put back together and ready to get tuned, however like the title states, I have some questions on fuel... I'm going to be using the stock ECU converted over to speed density, and I plan on using the alt map mod in tephra, but I'm undecided on which 2 fuel types I want to tune on...
I have an aquamist kit installed and it works fine, but E85 just became available at one station thats about 10 miles from my house. I was planning on just having a 93 pump map and 93+meth map, but now I'm leaning towards the E85 as the second map for its reliability and power potential. Before I make a decision tho, I have some questions.
- does my tank need to be completely empty in order to fill up with e85 and switch maps? Or is there a certain amount that is allowed that wont affect the octane too much to make it unsafe.
-What is the shelf life of e85? I was planning on getting a big barrel and filling it to keep at home in the garage for when I want it. This is a weekend fun car so this fuel could potentially sit for a while.
-If I stay with the aquamist, whats the reliability of running high-ish boost and achieving 650ish awhp? (setup below)
2.1LR Buschur racing 4g64
topmounted 6266bb
fic 2150
buschur race fmic
buschur stage 3 head
tomei 280 cams
buschur double pumper
Theres more but this should be enough info I think. I can list more details if needed
