E85 & Nos

The problem with E85 is that it takes so much of it to equal the btu's of gasoline. The nice part about it is that it has such high octane. Haven't done it, but if you put enough E85 in with your NOS, you might not even have to take any timing out. If you do, it would probably be 2-3 degrees for a 150 shot.

I've only known guys running methanol with the nitrous, but I don't see why not. Go for it, just don't run out of fuel system or injector (if a dry system). I'll presume a wet system, 'cause you're probably at about the limits of the MAF already.

I believe Red99 is talking about the seals in the fuel solenoid and lines going bad due to the corrosive properties of ethanol.

I know NX has an E85 kit but I will have to ask if a regular kit will hold up to ethanol. I know the fuel system in the car will hold.
Thanks for the help
