fired the car with 85 today, it stalled once, started it back up gave it a rev and before i knew it the car was idling better on E85then on gasoline. Smells good too Cruising around the car behaved just as it would on gasoline. It runs very smoothly, and dosnt buck as badly while decelrating. The exhaust tone is slightly differnt but sounds great.

I have a 10lb spring in so i couldnt go full wot for too long without running out of fuel, but the car feels good. THe map is perfect, dropping down to about .76 lambda when i go wot. WIth all the extra cfm im pushing it would creep up fast so i obviously am running too much boost for our injectors on ethanol. I never ran into knock though.
AS its been cooler out i have been running out of fuel on gasoline at 8lbs of boost so i am going to either bump boost back down or just not worry about it and call it a project success for the summer atleast.
so this is really no suprise, but E85 runs very smoothly. Ship away

P.S. I rolled into hte parking lot when the gas light had been on for a good 15 miles. IT was running at about .95 Lambda but since there was a gallon or so of gas still in the car im sure that will come back up to a perfect 1.0 at idle. Awesome job mike, ill report back when i have finished the 3 gallons off and switch back to gas for a tank or two before the car is in storage for the winter.

Stage 2v6 is the same price Stage 2v5 was. Of course since there are now owners of previous versions of the stage 2 software with z32 maf meters I added a much cheaper upgrade option for those of you who fit into that category. For previous stage 2 owners the upgrade is $129. Before anyone who doesn't fit into that category tries being slick let me say when I say stage 2 owners I actually mean purchasers. To get the $129 price you have to be listed in our records as a stage 2 purchaser.

How do you get it:
order from our website. Wait a few days though. We aren't shipping it till our prototype tester verifies the e85 code is working correctly. I'll post in here when he does.
Always check the thread before asking questions that probobly have an answer

Tom

Significant Technical Input
I spoke with Phil a little while ago and it seems the question some had about if E85 would make more power or not has been resoundingly answered with OH YEAH! Quite an accomplishment in my mind considering how well 2v6 gets power out gasoline. Speeking of gasoline I need to update our information on gasoline and 2v6. The ability to run regular unleaded gasoline was not dropped with the 2v6 software. The gasoline software in 2v6 works very well with all grades of unleaded fuel. I've been driving on regular unleaded since I finished the software.

He's going to fill up again so we can verify lambda at idle with a tank of fuel that is strictly e85 without the remnants of the last tank of gas left in it. When I get that info later tonight I'll be able to program the first ROMs with the official 2v6 software and send out the upgrades to you faithful early adapters who already ordered them.

Fantastic. I'll have mine installed for the Lime Rock time trial on October 2. CART (Connecticut Autocross and Rally Team) has classified me as F/SP (they are using Solo classes) Looked at the cars in the class, and seems like I might have a bit of an advantage in that class. Potential thread hijack detected. Will relocate to General SVX Babble

Another small update. As mike has said the lambda is right on. The car starts and runs good, smoothly. I have no put 130 miles on e85 with little or no troubles. No report on gas milage as i put 13 gallons in, and no gas light as of yet. My fule guage has a stuck floater and reads empty almost all the time

Just got back from cruising around SD. The new version is nice. Snappy and quick. The dyno shop I usually go to was closed so I'll have to try another day to get dyno time and see how the new plots look.

My only issue was with the isis valve. I removed the bypass that Tom and I put on and replaced it with a straight piece of hose. But then the car was idling at 3K. Is my isis valve messed up from the bypass or do I need a check valve in the hose?
