Went out with my brother and helped him tune his e85 16g powered car. Has all supporting mods including 1000cc injectors, 272 cams, fmic, ect... Now the car is running 28psi dropping to about 24psi by 7000rpm's, which we hopefully are fixing with a 38mm WG.
We started adding timing, we are at about 24* by redline and the car just will not knock. No madder what I add we get maybe three spots where 1 count of knock shows up and that is it.
How much timing is safe of cast stock oem internals. If the tune is good and there is no detenation could we add some more or should we leave where its at.
Also let me know what you e85 guys are running. From what Ive researched a lot of people run way more aggressive timing on e85 than even with c16 gas.
