E85 is awesome! but until it is more available in this area, I will be running on normal octane levels grrr I just need the injectors and tune  Isn't there 1 pump in the SL valley? I know there's a bunch down in Orem. |

You put E85 straight into your tank? Are you tuned for e85??? Did you upgrade your fuel pump?
Also, Methanol (wood alcohol) is produced through a chemical process. By its nature methanol is more corrosive and provides 35% less energy then E85 so you have to burn 35% more of it to make comparable power. E85 cost the same or less then regular unleaded gasoline, methanol cost $4.00 - $5.00 a gallon.

Yep at least the ss/sc has a lot more options than the ss/tc does huh? TVS, Turbo, E85, Twin charge, Too bad Utah isnt like Nebraska and Iowa e85 was everywhere as were hundreds of miles of cornfields lol. Michigan has 93 octane everywhere also makes me sick.
