I wish we had E85 around were I live. That is awesome power...not too many cars make 700+whp on gas you can buy at the corner gas station. ....especially a 2 liter engine. Very nice!

Don't wish for e85 too quickly. Though we have it in *very* selected gas stations, the definition of e85 at the pump here is e(70 to 85). Meaning the ethanol content can be anything from 70 to 85%. So imagine a perfect tune on a tank of e85, then the next tank full your car runs rich as ****, or worse, much leaner, because the fuel density variance is too large. Of course you can buy it ready made up, knowing it's exactly 85%, but damn it's expensive. So for me I'll go back to 98ron after my emissions test (see my 20B project in the sig.)

Rofl I know - how embarrassing for a so called rotary specialist to be telling a customer they're making 1000ft pound!
Nice build man, great work...

bewtew, were you running a S480 turbo before? I thought the S480 is the better turbo for 20B's. Same 1.1 a/r on the turbine side? 83 or 87 or 92mm turbine trim? The S475 has great response on my 20B (1.1 w/ 83mm), but I was thinking of upgrading to a S480 with 1.10 and 92mm trim. Curious to what your experience is like.
