iv just finished my build and want to get the most out of my setup so was wondering if i should get it tuned on e85 fuel

mods are

fully forged rb26

tomei poncams, cam gears, power fc d jetro, fuel pump, 800cc injectors on greedy rail, spitfire coilpacks, hks ignition and HKS GTSS turbo's

whats the most power that gtss turbos can produce? anyone have their 26 with gtss turbo's tuned on e85?

What fuel pump exactly?

More or less listen to the above guys, they know. I'd be using my limited knowledge to say around mid 300's before your injectors maxed.

Be sure the pump you have will suit your flow requirements though.

yup, as has been said or injectors will be the deciding factor.

make sure you remind your tuner to check the duty cycle and stop the tune at around 90% (wherever you guys are both comfortable)

i'm sure most tuners will do this anyway, but it is something that occasionally gets forgotten

yeah man, if you can get E85 easily enough where you are then I say go for it. there is sure to be some gain to be had in conjunction with more boost (25psi or so should be fine).

380rwkw is the highest figure I have heard reported from GT-SS's

I am considering testing their limits on E85 also and have sourced ID injectors to handle the fuel supply

Think of what you'de make on 2530's though :thumbsup:

Dont change to E85 you will probably regret, You will make the car "thirsty" it will drink alot. My idea is to change the turbos to GT-RS.

Its right you will get better performance and better "security" in the engine but as i said it will drink alot.

Clearly GT-SS's were chosen with response in mind - 330rwkw/PULP 380rwkw/E85

Now.. why on EARTH would be pick 450rwkw/PULP of turbo if he is chasing response, and on a 2.6l?

Silly suggestion, no extra 'security', just a whole lotta lag.

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
