...I'm waiting for one of the big automotive advertising companys to come up with an advertising 'pitch' that touts the fuel economy and horsepower benefits of using E85 over straight gasoline (E0) in their turbo-powered engines.
...mark my words, it's gonna happen SOON. Alcohol and turbo-engines are made for one another. It's a situation of high power from small displacement by controlling the effective compression-ratio via the turbo waste-gate...just takes the right software running in the engine computer control unit (ECCU)...and "closed-loop" control of the turbo waste-gate.

Reason: corrected misspelling of "turbo"
