I keep hearing all these go thing about e85. And with something so good there must be draw backs, if so what are they???

help me out please
 
1) You need to use 33% more fuel to do the same work (bigger injectors, bigger pump, bigger lines).
2) Some pumps, lines and tanks are not compatible with E85 (corrosion).
3) Some people find they need to clean goop off the tips of their injectors occasionally.
 
There is no real draw back except that its not as available as gas in some places. Like stated you get a little less mileage out of a tank of injectors need to be cleaned every once in a while by running regular gas.

After that its all power to be made with e85. I gained over 100whp when I swapped to e85 with just a lot more aggresive of a tune.
 
??? Thats like comparing meth injection too race fuel. IMO its better because it is your actual fuel. You dont have to worry about running out, or nozzle size, or right water to meth mixture. You just fill it up, get 105 octane fuel that acts like 110 or better and you will most likely never have detonation issues again. With meth injection you have to find the spot where you not using to much and not getting detonation. With e85 it just works right when you put it in the car.
