Damn you got a good deal haha. From this thread,
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55450, like you got a good 33HP for 800 on E85. $800/33 = $24.24/HP. Awesome deal!
The with similar mods as this guy (Difference being he has a catback and I have catless front pipe) I hope to make 191HP with my $525 spent haha
Besides the numbers, I really feel this is enough power for me. I've noticed running E85 that my car is lacking driver input on my daily commutes. Its awesome being able to pass people in 6th gear but what makes this car so fun is that its meant to be a 10/10th's car. From the power I gained i'm starting to see less and less driver input, such as dropping to third for passing power without breaking laws. I'm happy that I'm still able to do that with my power gains.
Now all I'm really looking for are $200 Power blocks, this way I don't have to rev so high, waste gas at higher rpms, and increase motor longevity because the motor doesn't have work so hard for power. Really like that this mod increases pull in the lower and midrange bands.
Either that or I buy another Inlet hose but with a curved tubing hopefully I snatch one for $50.
Patience is a virtue when being cheap haha
