510six Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Vern at Raver Motorsports setup the AEM EMS to activate the secondary injector control ,after a bit of street tuning the car is boosting to the 12.5 psi wastegate spring. The car feels stupid fast with the E85 , according to the datalogg everything checks out OK. Next it will be heading to the dyno to finalise the high boost tune and plumbing and tuning the nitrous (should be a minor/ major) PITA. The 14 injectors. There is actually some room behind a 510 glove box, mounted a fuse box for the secondary injector control and associated items. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 The naws will do the cooling. :P Quote Link to comment
510six Posted June 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 "No intercooler 510Six? " The fuel is the intercooler, the datalog shows a 60* drop in air temps from two of the eight 1600cc injectors in the intake piping. On each runner a 1600cc injector provides fuel for each cylinder further cooling the mixture. The fuel under boost is 100% E85 which has a higher latent heat of evaporation than gasoline , which while not as good as methanol still works quite well. Quote Link to comment

Icehouse Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 510six how much less prone to detonation is E85? I want some for my car :) Quote Link to comment
510six Posted June 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 510six how much less prone to detonation is E85? I want some for my car :) Than premium octain gasoline? Well "true" E85 is 105 octain with double the ability to take heat out of the intake charge than gasoline. A fuel system has to be properly setup to run E85 , no raw aluminum or steel as alcohol will cause corrosion in both of these materials. Unless you are planning on running really high compression (over 11 to 1) or a turbo motor, gasoline is really the better option.
