Default Mustang GT E85 Dyno Results!
Well...I am more than happy with the results!

I made 301 wrhp and 317 lbs of torque. I made this in 100 degree weather. I'm super impressed that I made this power just with a JLT2 intake and E85 in the tank. Justin at VMP tuning did a great job. The A/F ratio was right on the money.

My best "gasoline" pull was 291hp when the weather was 68 degrees! I love E85!

What did you have to modify to run on E85?

Nice, did your mileage stay the same as it was while running gasoline?

I heard E85 corrodes the engine after a while. I dont like that my gas has at least 10% ethanol in it now... Hope it all works out for you

Pretty impressive. This goes against all I have read about running E85.

There is a ton of urban legends on E85 out there. Out here in TX more and more people are running it in their Mustangs. My mileage suffered about 2 mpg switching over. Yes you can run N20 with E85. Nitrous Express is building me a kit. When I spoke to NX they said E85 and Nitrous run very well together. They make many E85 N20 kits for a lot of applications. As far as I know...they are the only ones who make a kit.

There is no need to pull timing when spraying! Once the kit is installed I plan on posting numbers.

E85 is 105 octane, so its like cheap race gas.

NX has a built me a kit. I'm waiting for the kit to ship. Next is a lil giggle gas. I'm shooting for 450 rwhp.

Justin, do you think the stock fuel pump can handle N20?
