April 16, 201214 yr #1 Just seeing wat everyone else thinks! Who have done it and how long did it last? Etc I was thinking for a race tune, doesn't have to be 450 just a thought. I got all supporting mods besides rods and pistons which is in the future list I have bf Fpv mk 2 f6 bottom end with 6000kms on it at 390 kws pump fuel. I was thinking to moving to e85 or av gas
April 16, 201214 yr #3 Its not a good idea. It may last awhile, it may last 20 minutes. A set of rods at least would be a good idea.
April 16, 201214 yr #4 its all in the tune mate. I dont think tuning it with a different fuel is gonna hurt, as long as you dont go nuts on timing, and keep a safe afr ratio...e85 is the way to go...go for it!
April 16, 201214 yr #5 Yes it's been done, forum member Glouva 1 FG, runs 457 RWKS from memory on E85. Look in the 400+ section.
April 16, 201214 yr #6 Glouva is running full stock xr6t bottom end. You have an fpv bottom end so it may be a bit better/safer Edited April 16, 201214 yr by Shyfrd
April 17, 201214 yr #9 Ah k. What's the difference then between FG XR6 bottom end and FPV's FG version?
