6 Cylinders + E85 + 20lbs of Boost = ?

I'm not as familiar with those... I have the ID's in my Evo and like them alot.



Having done a lot of reading on the various Evolution boards I've concluded that there isn't much performance difference at all with the winter/summer blends of E-85 in our area. I've had several conversations with guys who tune Evos for a living and they have told me over and over that they see no adverse effects or advantage powerwise when the summer blend hits with more ethonal in the mixture. I spoke with David Buscher several times about this issue and he assured me winter blend will still make big power, and the tuneup will change very little with summer blend. I think my TA proves his point quite well.

Yeah, I dont think the performance changes, but the AFR defintely does. Last weekend we were down in Houston for TX2K11, the EVO out friend drove down from Dallas was still on winter blend and we switched it to summer blend that Houston had and the AFR changed by over a point. She was 11.5:1 in Dallas and 12.5:1 in Houston, although the elevation changed also.
 
That's bad ass, I never would have guessed it made that kinda power! I'm glad you posted this before I asked you to race my black car :lol:

I'll have to keep an eye on that once the fuel changes...

That is awesome power for a 3.8 on 20psi, almost unheard of. Thats a stage motor right?

Its actually closer to 4.5L. The block is a 4.1 stage 2 block with a stroker crank and larger bore.

I thought we already agreed on a race! You on spray it should be a good race. This thing is a 3700lb behemoth. It takes this much power just to get it in the 10s...;)
