    Technical Ignition advance on E85

Most logs I've reviewed from others with my setup (Doc Race / gen2 precision 6266 on full E85) have timing around 10* up top, but that's on a stock motor. I have a built bottom end and JE pistons with beefy ringlands and rings...

    E85 as a 91 octane booster?

    I've done some googling and still haven't found anything that seems to answer this clearly. Sorry if it's been hashed out already. I live in CA. We only have 91 octane fuel. I do have E85 near me. Without doing ANY mods or tuning, can I add a couple gallons of E85 to each tankful of 91 just...

    Hey Guys (and gals? ) So I was in contact with Marcus @Sharp and we had some great conversations about using my car as the test mule for their new offering of the N54 Port Injection Manifold. Marcus was kind enough to send me a sample of the manifold as is. So we can expect this for now to be...
