Mobil 1 is in, put the filter in yesterday and the catback went on today as well... i wasnt in the mood to try to get the bushings in so those are still sitting around for another day.... Exhaust is pretty awesome no rubbing, kicked off to the side a ways but no big deal IMO, bent one of the brackets a little bit to center it a tad more....
the detail guy who was working let me / helped me wash it quick, and then he waxed it down... got rid of ALOT of the scratches and ALOT of the swirl marks im gonna go give the wheels a little better attention, clean out the interior, and vacuum

Hey dude, not to hijack your thread, but a couple pages ago you asked about me E-85 tune and here it is...
APS 70mm, Deatschwerz 850cc and APS Catted TBE.
Bottom line is OTS Stage 2, second line is tuned 91 octane, and third is obviously tuned E-85 correction factor of 1.15.

Java, thanks for posting that, i was very interested in how it did as well.

i would also like to know your fuel mileage compared to 91 octane??

Im guessing it runs pretty good with E-85, glad to hear

Fuel mileage....yeah haha, it's for sure worse but I've been enjoying the new tune a little too much. But once I settle down I'll be sure to check back here and let ya know what it's at.

looks good.... 16psi? i talked to Scuba_steve and he actually had good things to say about Harvey and his tuning, and that because of the elevation, 16psi is good... alot of the people hitting 19psi are sea level or so.... Java, what PSI did u get tuned?

Edit: Not saying i was shocked to hear good things about harvey, im just glad someone could explain a little better about tuning a mile above sea level. Java's input was nice as well as Scuba_Steve

yeah I highly recomend him, he's a great tuner. My OTS map was at 16psi, and for the 91 octane map he tuned it to 17psi because any more than that didn't see great gains from, and once he put in the E-85, the boost automatically jumped to 18psi, just from the octane rating I guess...

Sounds good, i'll wait and see what i wanna do.... kinda wanna get a Downpipe and get protuned cause the catback alone isnt as loud as i was hoping, but i knew it wouldnt be.... oh well im still really happy with it, time for a catted downpipe and some other goodies and a tune
