What makes you say that ? I can't think of 1 reason that gas is better than e. I go out of my way for it, totally worth it for price and performance.

Higher specific energy, higher Stoichiometric ratio, and subsequent improved BSFC are three strong points for Gasoline.

Yes, but the benefits of E85 are about a 104 octane rating and it cools the air charge so it will make more power than 93 pump and on a minor note no bad exhaust smell. I love to tune with it. Mostly customers from NY where it's readily available. I see the biggest gains over 93 on boosted vehicles.

Agreed, it makes more power period. Just hard to find in NJ.

Interesting this has the MSD dip, but the other two NA dynos posted with E do not.

Both of those members, Danhr and Ultra, have Ported MSDs. That could be why?

Hey Julio, how have you been? It's Dave from way back in the day. I had the Silver 1998 Camaro SS that you guys put the Incon Twin Turbo kit on. Now I have a 1LE that's mostly stock. I wish I was still near you guys.

Here are the before and after dyno numbers.
This is pretty much a perfect build. I too would rather use the money towards the manifold over an exhaust to reap even more hp. By any chance do you have any recording of this vehicle running?

Sorry, I do not, when the customer comes back I can take a video of it idling if that helps. He's coming back for a cam and maybe head porting in a month or so.
