Default E85 converted SRT-6
Well, heres the deal. Last week I converted my car over to E85. Yes, I know what some of you are thinking. The good news is that I bought the kit from the service manager at the dealership, so he will take care of me if any problems arise.

Now for the review up till now. I have gone through several tanks so far with no issues. The kit I had installed is the only kit approved for sale in the US by the EPA. So, I did not think I would have any engine codes. My MPG is around 17.1 mixed driving(city/Highway at 70). The car throttle response is better and the car feels like it has more power. If any of you remember my car I have a very hot tune in the car from Inmotion set up to use race gas or water/meth. With E85 being 105 oct. it is race fuel.

Everyone that has driven my car tells me it is smoother and has more power and they say it feels like it comes on quicker. From a dead stop running my sticky P-Zero track tires it roasts the tires off idle through 1,2, and 3rd.

I will be going to the track tomorrow for friday night drags at US 41. I hope the added power I feel is not just in my butt and mind, but shows up with a 12.2 or better. I will post updates as I find them out.

Note: I save 75 cents a gal. over 93 oct. thats worth it to me just for that reason alone.
