E85 in NoVA/DMV
So, I just flashed my FRS with the OFT E85 Stage 2 EL tune.
WOW. Everything is smoother, power delivery feels more linear...and I haven't even bolted on my new UEL headers yet. Ethanol is addictive. The only downside is that I haven't found any e85 pumps other than the Georgetown Sunoco on Wisconsin Avenue. Have any of you found any e85 pumps in Northern Virginia? |

E85 in Georgetown: hella expensive though. I just got 20 gallons at $2.48 per gallon (credit).
On the upside, mileage doesn't seem to be too bad. 20 mpg of mostly commuting, with some irresponsible driving on the weekend. If we get a few more e85 stations this thing could really catch on. |

E85 at W Express on River Road, about a mile from the DC line (outbound). Right at the capital crescent trail, little falls parkway, whole foods.
