Any ideas? enough to safely handle a full bolt on e85 setup? thanks

Full boltons and e85 will get you 700+ hp. I don't see a tip lasting long under those conditions. A nice 600hp k16 billet setup on pump gas would be fun.

I don't have any hp/tq numbers but have k16 billet running 1.25 bars. I have 60k+miles with the billets. No track but tranny/car really gets a workout. No issues but tranny gets flushed every 20k miles. I'm planning k24/71'snext and will not be touching the tranny.
