E85 is available in a decent number of gas stations near me. I went from 93&meth to E85 when I installed my forged motor because I don't want to have to depend on a meth dependant tune. The last thing I need is a gremlin to cause my meth pump to malfunction during a hard hit and cause damage to my motor.

Plus my car runs cooler on E85 and having a front mount turbo, I need to reduce under hood temps any way possible.
