93 v E30 v. E85

[Junkyard Dog]

Has anybody compared the limits of all three of these with forced induction?

It's no secret that going from 93 to E85 can result in a huge jump. How much of that benefit is realized just from E30?

A tip that worked for me is, I pull up to the pump… and put the car in track mode… it changes to a percentage. So if I’m at say 30% till empty, I calculate 70% of 14.2 … so I need 9.9 gallons and then I use the E85/E30 calculator app.

It is a lot to explain but only takes a few seconds and works excellent

"this one paper that got published said..."

"xxx tuner said..."

I haven't seen a video of a boosted coyote where they compare the three, if anyone has one it would be nice to see.

He starts making runs at 11 minute mark

TLDR, car was FASTER on E30 by several tenths, wengerd tuned.
And common idea is if you’re gonna make 1KWHP plus it’s better to go full E85/race fuels.

my own car testing, (SBF foxbody) on E85 I could shove more timing in early in the map than with E30

then I added meth, and E30 with M5 took just as much as E85 with M5, car never went faster either.

this was based off multiple years of track testing, plugs being cut for proper porcelain reads etc.
22lbs of boost in a 331.

93 I would never even try boost, back in the vortech days on 93, you could make 450-500 wheel on 10-12 lbs on 93, but they run them rich AF to help keep cooler, in the 10s gas scale

No illegal drug use talk on the forum.

What is M5?

EDIT - Ah, a barrel of meth from VP. Got it. Isn't that just increasing the percentage of alcohol, though?

That doesn't even make any sense.

The car must have been able to achieve MBT on a smaller volume of fuel, I’m just going off his dragy info.

the M5 added a trivial amount, I think it made the car 2-3 point fatter from 11.8s to 11.5s gas scale
It also has nitro in the blend to speed up the burn rate, while being much cooler temp wise.

still got a pail in the garage I need to get rid of, maybe dump it in the S650 for shits n giggles, smells like heaven when that nitro burns
