cheers, my last one had a 62T I ran the iridiums, they where great, better responce, better on fuel, Im tempted to get them for this car but dont want to kill them if they dont match the fuel |

Agreed, Irridiums are a great plug. I can quite confidently say that no one here runs E85. Having said that, I can’t see why the leads would be any different. Not too much aftermarket support for it to be put onto a cordia. Apparently you need to run massive injectors. Like way over 1000cc on multipoint. Speak to Brisvr4 on Team4g, he drinks E85 with dinner. |

I might get both sets to see what feels better, just in standard plugs though for testing I just talked to a ex fitter of the E85 http://www.85ethanol.com.au/gas-convers ... on16649524 he said that its just a piggy back ecu with a on off switch, no o'rings or fuel pump upgrades etc, I thought it might be a big deal to run this stuff, but its sounding easyer to do so, thanks Koray for the heads up about Tim, Ive sent him a pm |

I have heard that it goes stale in approx 3 months. Could be a rumour though. |

let us know how you go. Will the car be tuned to the E85 or are you just puting some in to test it out? |

no ecu tune, just timing , and I will add a front mount I just want to get 115wkw,but the more the better the old tune is 110wkw |

fairly expensive gamble. E85 will get more power, probably burn colder due to alcohol. Usually you run a colder plug with more power, so I would experiment with BP8ES plugs and BP7ES plugs, see what lasts/see what works best, make sure it doesn't ping. as far as the fuel goes; yep, ethanol and rubber doesn't mix too well, but that's not a huge deal. injector sizing; over 1000cc? not necessary unless huge power. Ethanol has a lower specific energy, so you need to burn more of it to get the same power as petrol, hence bigger injectors. Maybe up to 20% larger, which 1000ccc is not. you might want to up the boost as well. cooler combustion as well as higher octane lessens chances of pinging. maybe up to 15-16psi if you want it to be reliable? |
