and il be ordering my fuel pump tonight

 

Get in touch with NF performance. They can do all of that.

 

+1 I would contact NF Performance.

Question for you.... which UTI are you going to? Are you sure they have E85 on your road trip and in that state?

Here is a LINK that you can use to find E85 gas stations. It is cell phone friendly, I use it all the time when I am going somewhere new or out and about and need to fill out. The data is current, which is unlike some other sites that I have seen for looking for E85. If it helps I can drive 3.5 hours and have a little more than 1/4 of a tank left in my 2009, which averages 17.5 - 18.5 MPGs.

 

You'll be fine then

 

Make sure to click E85 on the left side and Public under advanced options.

 

Thanks for the link. Ive been running e85 since 2006 and this is is the best link I've ever gotten!

 

thank you for all the input i just got ahold of NF performance they are going to help

 

Thinking of doing the same thing, I talk to you some about it. If I understood correctly,
I can have my stock injectors in my 08 modded, a fuel pump and retune should be good to go?
That should allow me to run a larger turbo w/ more boost without having to get new injectors?

 

Hit up NF Performance for the best answer.

 

I have been using this with good success.

From someone who went to UTI in glendale hgts dont do the e85 till you come back there arnt enough stations if you live in glendale hgts and only a few in the area. Just go with a good exhaust and tune up here, or wait till you get down there and go to AMS which is 30 mins from school. also just a bit of advise dont put the sticker on your window put it on a clear CD case and put it in the window the cops really screw with the students. Also with the speed bumps in the parking lot I wouldnt lower or put a large exhaust on the car, I watched a few cars blow off their fenders and destroy their exhaust.

 

I was considering the switch to E-85, do you have to upgrade the fuel lines to? How hard is cold starting in the winter? Just some questions for the E-85 guys.

 

The stock lines are fine. It takes some fine tuning to get the starts flawless, but if you hit up someone like Nuke at NF Performance he'll get it straight!

 

You may want to think about swapping out the fuel filter. I don't know that it's necessary, but it's save in my eyes. I picked up the Golan FF. It's pretty tits.

 

And you skipped right passed me =(

 

I have had no issues with winter starting. I teach snowboarding on the weekends so my car has sat outside for 10+ hours in negative temperatures more than a few weekends last year. As well my car sits in a parking ramp all day while I am at work. Car stated every time last year, no issues. I think a lot of the issues that people have is due to their tune.

 

lmfao, some of my guys can't start up well =P
i haven't had time on some of the cars to dial in the start up.

 

Well mine was dialed last year.

I know someone who has E85 that didn't get a NF tune and he had issues last year.

 

Mine always started up fine last winter too.

 

I only had an issue once last winter, but it was on one of those -40* days, wouldnt start at all. I have a MAP tune. never any other issues tho.
