BUMP!

 

[Sepiroth]

I'm in.

I hope you have a tune to better utilize E85 and get rid of TM.

I know this is a truck, but, I wouldn't mind better fuel mileage.

Be sure to post up on the attached thread so they can mark you down!

Justin can indeed tune for E85, but I will tell you, there is a reason I don't run it on my Tahoe, just not as good as the other octanes.

 

[Sepiroth]

It may not be as good, but last year when regular 87 was at 4.19, E85 was at 2.99

 

[Sepiroth]

Not to mention, I have read that GM uses the Ethanol setting rather richly, when IIRC they dont need to run so fat

 

[JennaBear]

Depending on the quality, you could wind up with the same MPG or worse, thus making the cost negligible. But being that you have FlexFuel, it can't hurt to try it out either way!

LOL, i have no problem being a guinea pig

 

[JennaBear]

With all the corn fields up in IN I wouldn't be surprised if you had good stuff!

 

[Sepiroth]

I honestly have never had an issue with E85 other than my combined mileage dropping from 16's-13's

Could my '96 Tahoe with a Powerdyne XB-1a supercharger get a tune from Black Bear?

I think it is running a tad rich at times.

 

[JennaBear]

Yep, Justin tunes 96+ GM vehicles.

This meet is pretty much a go for the weekend of March 20-22, just waiting on all the deposits. If you are interested in an in-person tune in Chicago, please hit up the above thread!
