It's a wash vs 93 oct. I've run both 93 oct and e85 in my Evo ix and whilst e85 was cheaper, like many have stated already, it does burn at a higher rate so you will spend more time at the pump. The true benefit though is in its power - making capabilities. Proven already to make more power than VP C16 and Q16 on Evos. There's a few Evos running 8's and a ton run 9's on this fuel. It does not however have the knock threshold of those two leaded fuels.

You are going to fill up much more often. I remember getting about 15mpg often when I drove like a granny. 8-11mpg was the norm on my Evo if I wanted to have fun. I kinda miss filling up on that several years ago when it was only $1.80 a gallon though.
