Hello,
I have a 99 Eclipse currently tuned for running 91 Octane. Everything included, she dyno'd at about 380HP
550 CC Fuel Injectors
EVO III 16 big turbo at around 28 pounds of boost
Anyways, I am JUST outside of emissions for my state, and my mechanic suggested running a mix of E85 and regular gas since E85 runs cleaner.
My question is, is there any reason to do this/not to do this regularly?
Ive heard E85 can help clean an engine out a bit, can provide more power, etc. Of course, all with an appropriate tune
But does mixing allow for a "best of both worlds"?
Thanks for any advice!
