    Looking at going E85 and wondering how much you enjoy and what difference did you see by going over to E85. I already have the BAP installed along with the racetronix fuel pump. Talking to PRJ as we speak to jump up the injectors. Small list of the mods in my sig.

    Thanks everyone!

    Thank you. I really enjoyed it and it really turned heads. It left me wanting more and that is why I went turbo. I cannot get over the difference from supercharger to the turbo set up. I kept the heads and went to a stage 4 turbo cam and still lopes like crazy.

    No. I built it for fun and I have seen similar set ups run low 10's and push high 500hp.

    1.6 RR, 3.29 gears, 3750 stall
    Would probably make more power getting rid of the massive converter and roller rockers than going to E85... Doing all 3 upgrades would push you over 600whp.

    I got rid of the RR's. The reason I have the gears is I also have the 1inch gm racing chain and cannot do much about that.

    gears are fine, I hate the 3.29 but I understand.

    The converter is most likely murdering you... I have a 3000 and I wish I could go a bit smaller.

    PRJ and I have talked about that. Maybe something in the near future to switch out. When I take it out it feels like a monster. I feel grateful to be able to have what I do right now, even if I left it alone. Taking years to get it where we wanted it.
