E85 Problems?

Yeah even now it's not the money.. already about the same.. like I said, it's only a 13 gallon tank and at 20 mpg(you're driving that SC like a grand ma if you're getting 20mpg.. more like the ECU isn't quite calculating that right.. it's not that accurate measuring petrol) but 20 mpg that's only a 260 mile range.. doesn't last long so you have to fill it up more, so that's the reason I will eventually switch back for a FI application. I can't imagine the mpg with FI and 85.. I think I've read people are calculating around 15 which is just under a 200 mile range... So if I do E85 on FI, it will be flex fuel set up and only something I would use on a track day or something similar.. I don't need 400 whp on a regular basis. I'm sure the car doesn't either. Even though I know people ragging this engine out at 26 psi boost and the engine just takes it. (probably at the expense of serious longevity )
