I picked up alot. Stock turbo can make 400+ on it. Larger turbo pickup larger gains because of their potential

Some comparos of petrol to E85 also include an increase in boost, so hard to say how much extra power is due to the E85.

This will set you straight. Here you go:

E85 vs 91 at 20 psi

I made 420 whp on the stock 8 turbo on e85.
E85 simply allows more boost as well as more timing where it can be used I the tune. It's very forgiving.
