or

2. An uncatted EL header + a Tune (so that the header can work; since I assume it wont with the CARB tune)


If I would guess, option 1, would be the better choice, correct? Since with e85, it would be around a 70whp gain (on mustang).

And, option 2, I think would probably only net 10-20whp from a header. Nowhere as close to the e85 gains.
Forget the header. It will void your CARB certification and there's a good chance it won't even give you 10 more hp.

Buy the Jackson CARB kit and enjoy it for a few months. If it gets old, then go for flex fuel.
