on bills mustang dyno I made 290 and 280 on 17 pounds of boost. He then cranked it up to 21 tapering down to 20 at 5900rpm problem with the last dyno pull is I dont have the same phone I did last week so im waiting for him to send me the dyno sheets. But I did pull a larger frame turbo srt4 on e85 I pulled him I raced my buddys sti which on harveys dyno made 380 I beat him bad twice. I ran a fully bolted gen 2 beat him by 4 lengths while spining through 3rd. I ran a e85 tuned evo beat him by 2 lengths. Needless to say its ####ing great

E85 is the shitzz. Must if you want to make safe power. Some people run no intercooler with e85 also eliminates the need for Water Injection.

Sweet. When I finally get around to supercharging the Stang I will be making the switch to corn as well.

are these numbers corrected?

You have plenty of room if they are. I was running 360/426 (corrected) on a corn tune with my K04.

Question: you signiture made me think, are you running 100% E85, or a mix?

It was down here at UPP in the springs.

and that is dedication to pull your pump appart. Don't forget about the fuel lines. They aren't very big fans of corn juice.

Edit: here is my dyno chart

1.25 CF? There's no way you're losing 25% power, even at altitude, with a turbo car. Even my NA car is only down 18-20% up here.

But I guess as long as you're consistent and just using it to measure before and after gains, then it's still useful info. But no way you have that much power at sea level.

Lol. It's fairly close, probably about 15-20 hp difference. From what I have seen of other cars at sea level, but yes, it's only a tool for measuring gains. I'm going to hop on the same Dyno once my new clutch is in to see the difference between my ko4 and my 2867.
