I pray that the speed bug doesn't bite and I'll leave it alone.

I made settlement on a shore property last week so just when I thought I was flush with some Benjamin's....BOOM back in the poor house
I was also thinking e98 for an edge...but I did some googling and some discussions on the topic some claim e98 is no better and possibly less hp in na applications.

One reason was the lack of gasoline causing an incomplete burn or something. Another reason was even further engine wear compared to e85 from the lack of gas. Less lubrication. A couple seemingly knowledgeable engine builders claimed the best results on pump e85 over e98.

Be nice if someone chimed in with experience/knowledge on the subject don't want to waste my money. Or damage the engine.
