I would like to take some temperature data. No one has really done empirical analysis though, or at least posted it on the forums. Most comments simply say that it was untouchable before, and mildly warm after. I used to get the idrive fuel pump warning on long pulls while running e85 even with a big bar of aluminum added to the back of the EKP but since I'm selling my 335is I've removed flex fuel. Knowing that e85 puts a lot more stress on a single walbro 450, it makes sense that the heat would build up and cause problems. I can start by getting temperature data on an unmodified EKP, then a modified EKP while running stage 2+, then flex fuel with full e85. If anyone would like to help me get data with a more substantial fuel setup I'd be more than happy to send you a unit for free and pay for your time. That way everyone has a better idea of the benefits.
