What sort of cost are you looking at to go e85??

There are not enough stations down here to justify at them moment.

This will be my next upgrade. I wish this video was E85 only instead of all the other mods. The title is a bit misleading and no way you can tell what the E85 gains were from this.
Great dyno numbers by OP. And E-85 is also very compatable with the LSA (i.e. 5th gens). D-Steck and others brought the E-85 Flex Fuel sensor forward on the LSA & LT4 on the CTSV2/V3.

And nothing gets eaten up in the fuel system. I've been running nothing but E85 for over a year now with no issues.

Makes much more sense now. It's crazy the bang for buck you get with e85. Apart from the loss in mpg, I'm having a hard time finding a con to this.

Fuel injectors is what I should have spelled out. Less expensive now. On the old Z anything past a set of headers you needed injectors.

Also, this is not the OPs car. He just ran across the Youtube video.

I haven't even looked into price yet. I'd say $400 for the flex sensor, then just an install and tune. I will say 4 credits with HP Tuners at 50 bucks a pop is a little steep then another 4 credits for the transmission if you go there. We do have plenty of stations here.

I'm getting my '17 lz1 tuned, cold air intake, and e85 kit installed next week. The local LSX guy is now saying I should put a low side fuel upgrade system too. He quoted me $2600 with install. Two questions.
1. Does it need the upgrade?
2. If so, what sort of upgrade?
