Possibly so but also more expensive.

Depends on the pulley. A 2.3 upper pulley should not be an issue and I wouldn't run a pulley smaller than that on the upper due to belt slip.

A lower pulley depends on the pulley, 9.06 shouldn't be an issue, anything above 9.25 would be advised to have additional cooling.

The only inconvenience of mixing E is that you make 2 transactions at the pump. Other than that, mix it 50/50 and you will end up around E50...it's pretty simple. I had the same mind set about mixing in the beginning as well, but after doing it a couple times it's no big deal.

I'll throw a couple more cents in on that one also.

.
I guess I'm the lucky one, spring and summer time blend is E65 to E70 and winter is in the E50. They also have the option of E30 and E15 so I have the best of both worlds and don't really need to mix. However, I did take Kings advice a while back and use the Lucas Alcohol additive to stabilize the fuel when I'm not driving. I don't want to run below E50 at any time.
