I ran E85 when the draper pump had it in my 08. Availability has been why I haven't till now. Running pump gas has proven to be problematic as it turns out we have ****ty pump gas in utah, who knew? 110 in the pump didn't make any more power then 91 given how much timing it took to just meet what I made on 91. Not to mention it is spendy. There are other options obviously, but E85 will probably work for me given that I don't drive my sti alot. Although a new job may change that How does one go about talking a local station into installing an e85 pump? |

Of the several dom1.5 set ups i've tuned the difference between 91 and 110+ octane is around 4-5 degrees of timing to achieve MBT (depending on how much the 91 map was pushed). E85 is different in terms of MBT, but it's very similar to leaded gases in terms of being able to significantly advance timing past MBT. Most race gases get the octane from Tetraethyllead(same with aviation). And as far as boost is concerned try 23-24lbs on pump and 28+ on some higher octane and see how she goes (i'm assuming a built motor here ). This same misconception is present with E85, that it burns slower. When in fact it burns amazingly faster: http://www.epa.gov/OMS/presentations/gni-mjb-051303.pdf Scroll down to slide 9. This with it's lambda of 9.0 before adding in gasoline makes E85 an amazing gas! Pack that cylinder with lots of cooling and make it escape quickly! Then there are the oxygenated fuels, the Ethanol and race gas blends etc. |

If it doesn't burn slower then why does it require more advance to make the same MBT?
Exactly that was the plan, but the turbo just wouldn't make that much boost. Duno what the issue is, maybe its the equal length setup and the bigger hotside combo. Thats why I couldn't make alot more power. I couldn't run alot more boost then what I was running on pump. |

I'm not sure why your turbo won't run that much boost, even with a 14.7lb wg you should still be able to hit 24-25ish psi. With the 110(or other increased sources of octane) there are other methods to increase power output safely. There is no reason for your car to have less output on race gas, unless the tune was set up that way. |

I was talking to the Manager at Jensens Oil on redwood and about 4800 south. They said if we got a petition together of all the E85 enthusiasts and it substantial enough, they would consider doing a tank up here. They said that their concern with doing this is that nobody would buy it and the product would "spoil" before it sold.
I would be game for E85 at Jensen's oil on Redwood. |

I have no clue how to go about doing it. Maybe if we just had them hang a sign and we went in with signatures at the location?

Maybe create a new thread for signatures, post a link to where it is located on google maps. Go around to different forums whoring out the link etc. I'm sure you'll get enough e-signatures. There is most definitely a potential market for E-85 in SLC valley.
