E-85
Is it possible to run E-85 without any modifications to the OEM fuel system.
The car is a 2012 Camaro Rs with a 3.6L V-6. Any advice is appriciated! |
You need a flex fuel sensor and some upgrades as E85 required more fuel to be burned. So a bigger pump and injectors are usually in order.
What mods do you currently have. E85 won't offer much of a performance upgrade on a stock motor. |
You need these components and tuning software to enable the sensor and adjust a few settings.

E85 has less energy and you might get some MPG increase but you'll need to burn more of it.
Why can't you just keep running gas? |

How do you get better mpg if your burning more fuel. I have a company car, Impala, with flex fuel and I get less miles to a tank with E85 than regular 91 octane. Just curious, thanks. |
E-85 will give you less gas mileage, around 20% less. With tuning changes you can get more rwhp using E-85. Depending on what mods you have, you can get up to 302 rwhp with an auto and upto 316 with a manual. Overkill has the conversion kit and the tune for E-85.

The question is: why are you interested in running E85? My opinion of it is somewhere between a worm's belly and the IRS audit man. |

I run E-85 and picked up 60hp and got rid of the meth kit in place. I replaced pumps, fuel lines, and injectors with my upgrade
