Got my car back today. So far I'm pretty happy with it. I've only driven it about 30 miles but it runs and sounds great with barely any difference in driveability. I'll post the dyno sheets a little later.

Stock 93 it made 399/409.
Modded 93 it made 474/? don't remember torque offhand.
Modded E85 it made 499/440

Note this is on a stingy hub dyno.

All I know is it is much stronger than before but still has stock like driving behavior. And it's LOUD at full song now.

I suspect if I took it to the local shop with a dynojet and did pulls it would be considerably higher. But, I don't really care because the delta on the same dyno is 74hp on 93 and 100hp on E85.
