As for traction, I lag enough in first to get going then at 5k all hell breaks loose, then i switch to 2nd, the motor hits the rev limiter right away and i wait for the car to catch up to the tires. Then in third i start moving good with the occasional spinning of the front tires, both in my case due to LSD (especially when it's cool out i'll roast em up good) but mainly i just moderate the pedal for traction, but the biggest help has been suspension and a Quaiffe LSD. Even on street tires with the LSD i have to launch at 4500 or higher if i don't want to bog. I probably spun more often on my B16g, but that turbo hit hard and soon. My 57 trim comes on rather smoothely then pulls like a freight train untill redline, 4th still torque steers some, but i think that's half the fun is fighting for control of the FWD car 
EDIT: I may tune to 12:1 but for nowe i want to make sure teh fuel system can handle going 11:1 without stressing too hard. I'd rather over engineer it than just be getting by. I checked the price for -6 lines from tank to rail today and i can build it pretty cheap, i just need to figure out what i'm going to do for my pumps....duals, BAP or add an 044 inline????? |
Shoot for 11.5-11.8 afr. No reason to go 12.1. Most all the cars I have seen on the dyno on e85 don't make any more power at 12.1. Also remember to keep your timing at a max of 20-21degs. I say this Because of how hard it is to get the car to knock on e85. A lot of people are running to much timing and creating really high cylinder pressures that are cracking blocks.
