    Drop the N*

    E85 or maybe methanol if not wanting to go with 65# inj.

    May even want to consider the Z3 kit. Save a few bucks and don't really see much of a drop in hp vs. the z7. Think of the Z3 as a hybrid kit designed to make the best/reliable power per dollar.

    If it's available to you, you don't mind the less mpg and free horsepower. You'll find it's very hard to get knock on E85.

    What type of water/air intercooler do you have? Ever look at air temp drops on it?

    Z3 is open dump?

    Not so emissions friendly.

    I was under the impression Z7 was internal?

    Two E85 stations in Canada: guelph and ottawa.
