My question will i see any detrimental or advantageous effects if i run maybe 3-4 gallons of e85 fulled by 93. Yes i understand people are running 50/50 for 40k and have no issues, 40/60 60/40 etc etc.
My car is stock right now. Parts to be added are CAI, JB4, DPs, hopefully IC and i believe that is it.
I know that the small mixture will help with timing, but is our timing that bad that it needs to be amended?

For guys/gals like me with ACN 91 octane will and can benefit from adding 3 gallons of E85 Pump. This will allow us to run more aggressive MAPs/Tune that are rated for min. 93 octane. Since you have 93, i don't see a huge benefit other than maybe cleaning up some timing if any. But I wouldn't add more than 3 gallons without the proper tune.
now if you go to the MAP on your JB4 that supports E85 Pump, then you will see a bump in ponies.
I have a pro E Tune @ E50 (50% ethanol not 50/50) blended with ACN 91, and have a kick ass ride with just DCI and FMIC. High Ethanol is a beautiful thing sir.
