Nice numbers, GST. Always good to see comparisons and attributable gains or losses, particularly with different fuels.

It's closer to $18/gallon like project_skyline mentioned. CleverUserName was just marking up the price for some additional illusion of quality due to the higher price.

This car is very strong. Issues mentioned include boost leaks in like 3 places. Should easily do 450whp and way more torque if the owner has Bryan let the boost come on itself instead of "rolling" into the boost to save the tranny. Let him blow up the tranny and get a 5 speed. Don't you like the 5 speed better??
As for the meth concerns, the owner also mentioned on different occassions he would swap up meth/water mixtures. All the way from 50/50 to 80/20. Granted weather differences probably played a factor, but he said the most he saw gain wise was around 7-8whp.

Nice nunbers

why would you even compare e85 that costs $2/galto an oxygenated race fuel that costs $15/gal(116oct but has an effect oct rating of near 123 due to the oxygenated fuel) + 118oct meth (2-5$/gal around here)? 
as for the other comments...
i can see e85 gaining 30hp over meth EASILY. meth w/ a 50/50 mix on 91oct is only going to bring the octane rating up to like 94-95oct...and you are still stuck with ingesting the horrid 91oct.
And consider that the AVG kit nozzle size is 500cc/min (m5 nozzle), meth spraying is minute in comparison to 100% e85, and would be inferior to e85.
im running a m14 nozzle and run 100% meth though, so for people like me that dont have e85 near by, they can close the gap a little running large sums of meth to make up for the poor 91oct quality. just riskier to do it this way for if that meth pump fails...
thanks for sharing your results GST!

Great stuff Bryan...!
To bad E85 isnt readily available near me, but 100 octane is sold at the pump no more than 5 miles from my house...
