I don't understand why anyone would want one.
You get less efficiency from E85 and it may cause more dirt and
and junk to break loose inside the fuel system.
That's my understanding, please correct me if I missed something.

im not really looking to get one i just came across it and wondered if anyone had any experiences with one of these kits.....im in the process of building an engine and i plan on running e85 and pump gas when i go to tune the car. i just broke down the engine this weekend and ordered my rods and pistons etc. i should be good for 200hp per cylinder.
my plan is to build the motor with forged internals, stock displacement and stock heads except for cams. and then do some boosting. still debating on either the blitz supercharger or building a custom turbo setup. im leaning more towards the blitz supercharger due to its simplicity and i can buy everything to bolt on and go. so after i figure what i want for boost im def going to run a 100-150 shot of nitrous and call it quits. im not looking to do anything fancy.

How much power are you looking to make chancellor6869?

If you are tuning the car you don't need this device. It is simply a piggyback to fire the injectors longer to deliver more fuel. You can do that with whatever you will be using to tune your car.

i dont really have a hp number in mind. basically just whatever my pocket will allow me. i have access to several garret turbos that was given to me but with as much as id like to have a high hp car for its size i just dont think its worth it.
i can get a used blitz for a good price and ive already purchased my internals for a damn good price and really all the extra expenses are going to go towards the necessities to make it run.
but a number of what i think ill make is somewhere around 200-220 maybe with the engine and boost, 300-320 with nitrous when added.
thats well enough power for me in this car.

im not looking to get this i just came across it and was curious if anyone has used it and had an opinion on it.

i will be running a standalone ecu. most likely from haltech.
