I burn half a tank at 180 miles. I drive that frequently and switch between filling up with gas rom an e85 pump which we are assuming e70 and a gas pump with a sign that claims it contains 10% ethanol.
I know from past experiences buying fuel from a name brand store like BP gives better performance and springing for 93 octane gives a hell of a difference when you put your foot n it.
Id like to try more of an ethanol mix for its octane properties to see how that effects vs the pseudo e30 ratio Im likely at now.
Today I was in a lot of traffic and guess the ima system was on the warm side as it was rather relaxed in its performance after 3 hours of work. I notice from the butt dyno between 1500-2500 rpms its got a boost in torque. Its like that of a 2.0 vs a 1.x engine. Again, thats also from the butt dyno.
Regardless it seems the engagement of vtec at 2700 is either too early or too late or the grind is just off. I still think it needs to be reground for better performance.
