I got an F30 328 as a loaner.

Of course, i decided to run 3 gallons of E85 on this thing and WOW is all i'm going to say...

This thing LOVESSSSSSSSSSS E85.
How many gallons of 93 ?
I don't mess with E85 lol since there's a lot of horror stories with ppl on stock fuel pump

Adding 3 gallons of e85 will no doubt lean out the air/fuel ratios as the density of E85 is considerably less than petrol. You need to be very careful Leaning out the A/F ratios on a turbo car..... It felt better because the increase in octane and leaning out of the factory Rich A/F ratios. Extremely dangerous without knowing how close you are to leaning it out to the point of blowing the engine up
Very true and especially we haven't seen any N20 on E85 to see how much its doing on the Dyno and their long-term usage just ppl that done a few pulls and never hear about them again when it comes to E85 (n20).
