Definitely more increases to be seen once you full run E85. I remember when i changed my car over. It went from 350rwhp on 24psi to 450rwhp on 21psi. 100rwhp gain with 3psi LESS boost!!

As you said its a total different car to drive with the other fuel in it...

Yes, but I doubt my car is going to deliver those same gains. My car loses power with more boost :/ the knock resistance of the fuel is just about at its fullest where I am, so it's only small benefits from here. I'm sure it will nudge over 400rwhp, but not expecting heaps more.

Seriously magical fuel though!

I doubt he would use 91

I think you mean the 100octance from united with 98 and 15% ethanol he is using pure E53

I believe United E85 is generally 91 octane unleaded blended with ethanol.

That isn't necessarily a bad thing though. The extra octane isn't necessary, and the lower octane will actually help the mixture to ignite. We are already talking about a 108 octane fuel here, so the octane rating of the petrol blended with it is inconsequential.

No worries mate. It really is amazing stuff. Can't wait to finish off this tank and change my fuel filter, see what crud has been cleaned out :D

Also, it makes the exhaust fumes smell delicious! :laugh:

Don't think I ever posted these photos:

Got over the old white leather trims that I put in when I first got the car. Realised it looked horrible, so got some new black ones. Retrimmed the steering wheel while I was at it.

Got some new bits and pieces for my GoPro, so had a bit of a play:

Aaaaand this is a compilation of clips I've taken since the tune:

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
