E85 is an easy sell for Californians, if available. For someone like Ryan, it was simple, 100*F+ days, local access, full power all the time, no worries about draining tanks and switching fuels, quicker turbo spooling, did I mention full power all the time?

This will essentially be the same setup that won the Moscow Unlim a few weeks ago. It trapped ~210mph, but had the best ET, thus winning the event.

You will like it...it will be fast also good daily driver with TipS and not much more lag then regular VTGs...

It also run good on 93 pump...

0-60 in 2.7
0-124 in 8.3
0-300 I dont remember low 19s...

60-130 in 5.4


1 Mile in 24.8

0-60 in 2.6
0-124 in 7.3
0-186 in 17.5

60-130 in 4.9

Those number on 26.5 PSI

On 25th we will be be testing 1/4 but I think it will easily run 9s, driftbox shows 149 trap....

Your'e definitely gonna love the E85 but your range is gonna suffer, i get between 200 & 250 miles depending on how i drive.Also the computer doesn't seem to readjust i ran out of gas last weekend with 44 miles still showing on the trip computer i keep a 5 gall in the front now.Are they offering some kind of switcher to switch back to 91 oct ?

We are planing mid 9s if the car will HOOK up and it wont be too HOT !!!

P.S.

All those times car showed with spining tyres 1st gear on 18 Hoolsers and 19 Toyos but Toyos work better and car was faster but Toyo them sleves are very heavy tyres... I'm not sure what the alternative but same wheels with MPC weight like 2kg less but MPC are worthless off the llne )))

Nice! Neil told me it should run mid 9's on DR and on street tires high 9's! That extremely good for full street legal car that you can DD and also at full weight! G/l with your runs...Are you running c16 in the car? What do you expect your 997 R1k to run in the 1/4 mile?
