u can't just run E85, you need to do the following:

* run bigger injectors
* run a walbro (ure an 8 so you should have this already)
* tune for E85

Yes it should make a massive difference...

Without a tune, the car might not even start if you dump E85 into it.

Drives: a laptop connected to your ECU.

It will start, it will just run like absolute dog shiat.
