I have something with an eagle on it and it's red but it's a pain in the ass lifting a 5 gal jug at shoulder height at a certain angle for a few minutes lol and it spills a bit.
I personally use a VP 3 Gallon Jug when I go up to Charlotte (2 hours away) to go racing, the jug itself fits perfectly in the backseat and doesn't move if you put the seat belt through the handle.

NOTE: When you put the jug together don't screw the spout on too tight, I made this mistake and it broke off (not sure if defective or bad quality, but figured i'd save you from having to get amazon to warranty it).

Hell yeah, I'll definitely try these out. Do you use the filler hose or just pour it straight from the jug?

Honestly no one will be able to give you a definitive answer, because no one has really done it. On this platform you just have to experiment and try things, or we'll all just sit around asking the same questions with no answer.
I'm going to try it next week. I just need to test my station's ethanol % to make sure it didn't drop over winter. Usually it tests E82.

I know you saw F80Paul's E50 map on stock hpfp. I'm curious to see what AFRs are targetting with the Supra pump and higher percentages. But he tuned that E85 supra on Babayaga's channel that's balls to the wall fast. I think we can make it work. Especially if i'm not pushing 18+ psi.

20psi and 16* of timing is a lot at 5000rpm

Yeah E50 has been solid as a brick for fuel pressure on the Supra pump and makes big power. The only reason I even played with E70 was to make filling up simpler, less math etc.

I bought a dozen VP Racing, 5 gallon jugs last August. No issues at all.

Thanks! That's good to know. Looks like E50 it is when the weather starts getting better

Haha, actually I can answer that. My local station E85 tests at just over 70% ethanol and the Supra pump couldn't handle it. Scary fuel pressure drop, Drivetrain Malfunction error, etc.
Here's the log:

https://datazap.me/u/tnilson/e70-mis...&data=4-18

Everything seems fine now after I threw some 93 into the tank but I definitely won't try that again on the current set up.

I wish you the best and i'm excited to see the results! Just keep an eye on AFR's and make sure it doesn't get too lean

I think I did see the E50 map on stock HPFP. If I remember correctly it was running pretty lean and on lower boost to keep the HPFP from crashing. I personally don't understand peoples obsession with running higher E mixes if you have to turn down the power to keep it from crashing.

Just ease of use for me. I'm not interested in swiping my card twice every time i fill up. My ethanol quality is high and the next step i'll take is port injection over a bigger fuel pump. If we can make it work at 13.2AFR or less, I'll be satisfied.

Hopefully this year they release flexfuel support and we can stop worrying about it.

Flex fuel support would be lovely.

I'd personally try to get the AFR's somewhere around 12.8 or less. I noticed when my AFR's were in the 13's the plugs were showing signs of running lean.

Port injection would be neat, Jaime has apparently had good luck running E50 on Fuel It's CPI kit (stock HPFP) with his Big Boost Stage 4 kit.

Yep, that's the direction I was going until I got the fuel pump for cheap. I play richboi games but in reality this is me.

Hahaha I feel this. I'm starting to pinch pennies as i'm about to open a business. Half regret buying the turbo, but i've already made half the cost back from money races so who cares

How much are you selling your Supra pump for I have a cpi kit currently and cpi kit running around 18-20 psi wirh 12-13 afrs I wonder what my car would be capable with having your Supra pump as well in my b58 340i

You've caught the bug you were pretty hesitant to jump in at first and now you want all the fueling

GL with your build. I bet you max out the turbo for sure.

So overall what HPFP do you think would be best to pair with Big Boost Stage 3 Turbo kit? I was aiming toward the Dorche Stage 2 but I’m kind of waiting to pull the trigger until I am sure! Was planing to run 93 pump gas first then move into some E85 What’s your thoughts?

I have the DE Stage 2 with the Pure 800 running 24psi currently and have no rail pressure drops yet, and i'm on E50. I'd highly recommend Dorch's pumps. If you plan to go E85 in the future just pull the trigger on the Stage 2 so you don't have to worry about upgrading it again.

Yeah I’ve seen you before, Your car moves forsure! I’m thinking because I know it’s not all plug & play... Like you can’t just install the turbo/hpfp BM3, Turn it on & take off from there, or can you? Who does the adjustments on setting boost psi and making sure you don’t run
lean!? I’m kinda new to the major bolt-on upgrades. So I’m a little curious!

You'll need a custom tune by a performance tuning shop for an upgraded turbo. The shop you work with is up to you, but depends on what flash tune you're running because most tuners have a preferred platform they work with. So SC_B5X and myself work with Wedge Performance out of Oregon because they use the MHD platform. But if you have a BM3 or something else, you'll want to find a tuner that uses that platform.

I see you called out BM3 in your post, do you have that flash installed now?

Good luck, I'm excited to see your build!
