Testing on 93 pump....I can say that its much FASTER then SPI 750 )))

I have some vids and putting the race vid with Switzer P800...1st run my stomatch felt a bit sick...

P800 also runned 0-60 in 3.2 on 93 pump 19-20 PSI...just WOT no pre-boost or anything....FAST and very responsive, hope R911 will work as good....

What is the reason for E85 upgrade - lower cost of gas, higher octane number for tunability? 911 has already a small gas tank - E85 is a lower energy fuel so you'll end up refueling much more frequently.

It's like running race fuel for a fraction of the cost...The best gas you can get in Cali is 91 octane or maybe 100 oct "street blaze"..The 100oct is pretty expensive, $8-10 a gal, and who knows if its good or how long it's been sitting there...A 54gal drum of c16 is around $600...Right now E85 is approx $3.50 a gal! So it's basically cheaper, way higher oct, less chance of bad gas, can run higher boost, and it burns cooler!
