Got to say dude that your exhaust sounds fantastic, coming from the dude who gave a thumbs up in the traffic jam on the m1.

Do what Honda did with the NSX Type R, and get a fine mesh for the gear/handbrake gaiters! That leather on the gaiters sure is heavy  :grin: :grin:

I would love to run my car on E85 but I dont fancy having a couple of 250 litre drums in my garage and not being able to fill up would be and issue for sure!

Not really a massive issue, so long as the E85 is compatible with the fuel lines, injectors, seals etc etc.. As some E85 will corrode those parts if left sitting for a while..

It would just be a case of possibly optimizing injector size (depending on what turbo you are running) and flow rates etc, then mapping the car to make the most of it, so you would be able to run a fair bit more ignition advance because of the low temp of the combustion and the high affective octane rating.. (up to 120 Ron)
