Oem audio just let me know the reference series will be available tomorrow for preorder.

There is also another option they will announce soon that will make @SMOKETREES very happy.

As for mileage, that all depends on how you drive.

I was burning any remaining pump gas out last night. I got a little farther down the freeway than expected and the ecutek software was actually reading zero for 5 miles going down the freeway. I had to hypermile it. Lol

Even getting that low I was only able to get e81. I swear they had a batch of winter blend at this station. I have never had such a hard time getting higher.

@Yruyur Just add some moonshine.

Edit: would that actually be a thing we could do?

It would have to be "real" moonshine. Aka 100% pure ethanol.

For the gas tank at least...

In New Jersey we used to swap gas tanks in jet skis to go to parties and run them on ever clear. Ran hot as shit, but you could make some great melon balls when you got there, plus "no officer, were not drinking" these are just gas tanks.

EDIT: For you young guys...jet skis haven;t always been high-tech fuel inject with reverse and "brakes" on them. You used to have to stand-up and man-up!

E85 cars have sensors that detect the ethanol content. So you could on an E85 car, but ours would be just tuned to e85. So You probably could, but with risk. 7:1 fuel air for ethanol, 14:1 for gas.

up the compression and FI and it would run like a rocket on some 190 proof.

I have, and almost never made it home alive. I hung out with some (crazy!) dudes who were drinking that stuff in the desert at a bachelor party. I tried it, long story short it is not meant to held and drank like a beer. Tastes like apple pie and gas mixed and strained. Sip and pass as soon as you can. Do not sip and hold. It made my teeth feel weird it was so friggin strong.

Never again.

I don't think any one with a liver is missing out on that stuff.

As said above it's completely dependent on how you drove on that tank of gas. This is what I do and I've found the average mpg indicator seems to be pretty accurate.


*fill up with gas
*reset trip A or B and the average MPG indicators to 0
*drive like I want till close to empty
*multiply average MPG by 13 (gas tank size, really 13.2) then compare it to trip A or B
*the difference is a good projection of what you have left if you maintain that driving style till empty


I've actually filled up with gas, looked at how much gas I put in, figured out how much was actually left before I started filling up, and it has so far almost perfectly matched the few times I've done it.


Also I feel I should point out that I'm terrible at math so please double-check my reasoning, I might also be remembering this wrong.

When your light comes in, pull over and put 1 gallon in... continue to drive. That way you are continually low. The worst thing to happen is we tell you to drive around for 20 minutes and mash the pedal to burn the fuel before dyno time. I would ask Toni specifically how much fuel we should all have but he is in flight atm.
