I can just imagine how much the dual quad set up costs And I do need new rear tires and my helmut is out of date. It's always something!

I've never had a blown combo, but from what I've seen others go through...I'd absolutely go E-85. I have to agree. It's a shame it is not readily available for you. I added the the smallest single enderle nozzle I could find spraying E85 in my charge pipe pre-throttle and dropped my IAT ~50 degrees. I was seeing 370F out of the compressor into the intercooler and 180F out of the intercooler. With the nozzle, IAT was ~130F. After going from nitrous to turbo, I never want to bother with filling bottles, and messing with bottle heaters again.
Faster, Faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death...

Thanks to all that replied. I can see that E is the way to. I would need to get a 16 gallon fuel tank and not sure if the steel braided hose I have i ok for E. Now have a magna 500,is that E compatible?? Then send the SV1's in to change. Just NOT in the budget this year so I'm stuck in the low to mid nines.

I don't know about the fuel pump but you want teflon/ptfe fuel line for E85. You could always order some drums of Ethanol and mix your own.

Street dring on pump gas is still 750 to 800 HP,I just want to run that elusive 8 second pass! One of these daze I will switch to E

Spoke with Rodney at Pro Meth for a system to fit my need.Sent some picture's so he could see what I have. My question to you guys is which will work better,,,,,water/meth or E85.I figure the cost for either should be about the same, What say you?
