Ok, Pro's & Con's for Ethanol?

Pro's.

Is fashionable so you can hang with the cool kids.

Is ecomentalist friendly.

Makes moah powah and moah torque. (This is the overwhelming benefit)

Runs cool.

Con's.

Stores badly (is hydroscopic)

Can be hard to find at the servo depending on where you are.

Blend used to change to E70 during the winter for easier start. Not sure if this is still true(?)

Need bigger fuel systems than petrol and you have to be a bit careful about what the lines/surge tanks etc are made out of.

Need new tune.

Costs more to run.

Pros:

- Full boost a few hundred rpm earlier

- 40-50rwkw more top end and midrange at the same psi

- Response of small turbos with power of big

- Smells awesome

- Engine idles smoother, feels smoother

- Better/safer fuel for the engine

- Car is basically set up for it / will only need a retune, ~$500

- Plenty of United E85 servos around these days, costs about the same as running premium 98

- No soot over the back of car when running a rich tune or catless setup

- Once you've had E85 you won't want to go back

- No one who's used E85 has anything bad to say about it

Cons:

- Potential loss of licence

- Wanna make sure there's a couple E85 servos near places you frequent

- With Power FC have to run E85 tune full time unless you have a laptop and data cable that you can switch the tune out with - I do this fairly regularly for long distance driving and it takes all of a minute to do

- Nothing else, E85 is the best performance upgrade you can make
