So E85 is pretty awesome...

I went ahead and installed the flex fuel sensor ive been sitting on for the last few weeks. I had Tim with EFI Tuning do the tuning for me. I could definitely feel the difference in response once i filled up on E85, and the car seems to idle alot smoother. Went to the track today and got in a few runs, because thats personally how I like to gauge the effectiveness of a mod VS the dyno. Only did three runs but every one was a consistent 12.1xxx. My previous best was a 12.35 on a drag radial only, so just E85 picked me up an extra 2 tenths as well as 3MPH in the quarter. Definitely one of the most cost effective mods ive done! If I can get the launch down with this 6 speed I think ill easily see an 11.9. My 60ft was a pretty mediocre 1.98 and it still ran pretty good. Special thanks to Tim who is very responsive in answering any of my questions, and tweaking the tune until it was perfect for my car. Will definitely do business with EFI Tuning in the Future.

Those were some good runs! E85 definitely wakes up the beast.

Very nice, good job! When you cut that 1.8 60ft, you'll run high 11s..!

Any other mods aside from E85?

Just with those mods I'm sure you can crack 11s. Please report back once you hit those numbers.

You tried the launch control "trick"? That should help you with your 60'.

Yeah I definitely need to give that a try...if I can do a consistent 1.8 I'd be happy.

Solid runs and very consistent... 60' numbers pretty much tell it all.

E85 will be one of my 1st mods on the Z when it gets here.

I hope my Welds fit the new ZL1.

If so, I should be ready to hit the track very soon after delivery.
