Debating whether or not I want to change the injectors out, I really don't feel like retuning partial throttle right now although it's not really that huge of a deal. I think I'm going to wait for E85 to come out before I bother upgrading the injectors, in which case I'll need to retune anyway.
Need to work out the charge pipes blowing off issue that I have, then I'll get some dyno time and make some power.

99-00, the EL looks pretty good but something seems out of place with it.
Burnout vid? When I get my new tires, sure.

Ethanol burns WAY cooler than gasoline ever will. Not to mention it's rated at something like 108 octane. Yes, it does take 30-40% more fuel in order to combust correctly so you will get less gas mileage, but it's generally priced a little less than standard 87 octane.
In other words, I could drive around like I'm on race gas 24/7.
Seriously, when it comes to high horsepower cars, the cost of gas is nothing.
