Put the smaller pulley on and went to the track. Car is 3550 with me. Saw 19.2#'s of boost @6400 rpm. Car went 9.50@143.7. 1.44 60. Best of all drove the car home after my friend got a flat and needed my truck and trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFh9OZG_rS8Eric |

Why is the gas scale jaded?
E-85 is 9.7:1 stoich. All your sensor knows is Lamda and if you recalibrate for E-85 that 11.5 AFR just turns to like 7.5:1.
The sensor does not care..
Exactly. I don't understand why people have such a problem with leaving it calibrated for gas and just using the numbers you are alreay used to. |

Here's a nice little toy for us E85 guys. I like to occassionally check my E85 to ensure the gas station isn't selling me crap. This will do it real-time.. http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/ECA/ECA.htm |

That is pretty cool. The only problem I have is the sensor's fuel line input/ouput are too small for my application. The data sheet for the sensor says it's max flow rate is 200 liters/hour. My fuel system flows almost 800 liters/hour so if I install the sensor in-line it would severely restrict the flow. Any ideas how to resolve that problem? |

What about the return line?
Or create your own sample tube just for the sensor, put in parallel with a fuel source.

I thought about the return line, but even that is too large and the sensor would cause a restriction there causing fuel pressure to creep up due to backpressure in the line. I guess I could plumb a distribution block into the return line. The distribution block could have a 1/8" NPT port to feed the inlet to the sensor, and then the outlet from the sensor could be plumbed to a -4 fitting in the top of the cell. |

Running E85 what size fuel injectors would I need for a turbocharged 8 cylinder making 1,700 hp on 25 psi of boost and 43 psi base fuel pressure?

You might have to go to a dual injector setup. Not sure what the 160lbs limits are on E85. Some companies make bigger.
