Congratz on all the nice new goodies! Just wanted to let you know that I also had a muffler delete, and when I got the catless DP installed, IT WAS WAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY TTTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I drove strait to the muffler shop and put my stock muffler back on. I would recommend you to get some sort of exhaust to quiet it down a little. I'm biast toward the BMW Performance Exhaust, I think it sounds the best on our cars.

Yup, N55 engine as well, sounded disgustingly loud! You're ears won't be able to handle it or the drone! Plus it doesn't suite the car being that stupidly loud, its not a race car that gets trailer-ed to tracks only. You'll find out soon

I only installed the Downpipe Charge Pipe and intake. I definitely feel less lag and faster spool, more power, overall feels great. On Monday I will install the Intercooler and Jb4. It's loud with the downpipe and muffler delete but it sounds amazing lol. I might put my mufflers back on though because my neighbors may start complaining in the mornings. Cold starts super loud lmao and I park in a garage with everyone in my apartment. I will post updates when I get the rest installed.

I hear ya. I have a PE (no DP), which sounds good and relatively loud. Cold start in my garage last week caused the grandfather neighbor across the street to stop me on our road. He wasn't upset though. Instead, he asked me if I had some sort of FlowMaster because that's what he has on his Mustang! Apparently car enthusiasm has no age boundaries...Awesome.

You will want ~6 gallons of E85 per full tank.

It's 40% max with the Jb4. So around 6.4 gallons e85. If you have to use 2 different gas stations, fill up with 91/93 first then e85.

Also note that because it says E85 on the pump, that doesn't mean it is really E85. Right now in the Midwest they are switching blends and we can get under E70 at the pump.

I have also noticed no difference running E30 vs E40 on the stock turbo. E30 seems to be plenty of octane to max it out.

That's interesting. So how does that affect your calculations and how were you able to tell they switched it to E70? Is that posted on the pump?

on the e85 pump here in San Diego it says that it must contain 70% ethanol. so its basically a game of luck on what you get between e70 and e85 lol.
