Do you have a custom tuner? If so I would check with them and confirm. I'm running E85 and here is a paragraph from my tuner regarding my request to upgrade to Pure Turbos. FYI my goal is approximately 700whp.

"With full E85 the stock fuel system will limit you a lot as it will only flow enough fuel for approx 600whp on full E85. You could do a lean E50 tune and probably make 650whp but if you want to really take advantage of those PS2's you'll need to run full E85 with the fuel-it stage 4 PI kit, or add a methanol kit, or do a race gas tune. Many PS2 guys who don't have PI will run E40+meth and make 700whp or so."

Hope this helps. Sounds like you are going to have an awesome Christmas!

Yeah I'm putting down 756 wheel and have fuel it with full e85.

I'd recommend running fuel it regardless if you're going for power.

I know I'm reviving an old thread but I got kind of excited when I saw my baby (98 m3) in the background.
