Well, I went to the dyno yesterday . . . more on that in a min.
In Feb. of this year my Civic put down 315WHP on 91oct. Redline 9000 RPM at 12psi. This is the fastest go-cart I have ever owned. I have been enjoying it all summer. I'm still at 30 MPG because of the size of the turbo and it does not boost at all until 4k+ RPM. Many NASA & SCCA events have gone by and even a crash. (Thank goodness it was all cosmetic) and now its time for more power. A Viper almost caught me . . . . .
So, Been searching around and found my answer. . . . . . E85 . . . . . .
106 oct, $2/gallon and makes insane power. With a re-flashed chip and two hours of dyno time my 1.6L SOHC Civic put down 415whp at 24psi. Mind you my car is completely built, but E85 burns up to 200 degrees cooler, almost like a mild nitrous system or alcohol car, it is 85% ethanol DOHHHHH.
I could not be any happier so I thought I would share. Thanks for the read -B.
