I've been run E85 in my '91 240sx since 2007...

The Gas Milage sucks, but the power increase is incredible. The Torque band became much wides, by about 1000 RPM and it pulls like a train up to redline...

And that is a fairly stock, 2.4L Nissan engine (232/232 cams, 9.5:1 Compression Ratio) with a custom intake, ram air, 4-2-1 stainless header and custom exhaust... and the base Timing is advanced to 27 degrees from 20...
