I understand e85 helps, but this is waaaaay beyond the scope of published specs. 300hp at the engine at 1 bar is the published spec. So at less than half the boost pressure, you are making as much as the max at 1 bar? Does e85 compensate 100%? And all this is non intercooled! I'm sorry that I am skeptical, but the numbers do not add up in a major way. I would love to be proven wrong, and I will even put away my flame suit if it turns out I'm completely off-base. But so far, this is not passing the basic sniff test.
