I'm running dual maps 91/E85. Currently have 91 map flashed to ECU. Let's just say, I miss running on E85, but I can still switch over any time I want. You won't be disappointed with E85, trust me.

What exactly are your upgrades. List them all out. Maybe we can give you a ballpark figure of what your figures may be. But numbers aren't always everything.

I don't want my mileage going down that much...
I'm trying to reach around 375 torque and 350 hp...
Is that possible without e85 or meth without doing an engine build?

I have a Cobb acessport with 93/e85 and I love e85 you really do feel the power gain. E85 I get 210 miles per tank , and 250 miles per tank on 93 . But since e85 is cheaper it is around the same thing and switching is as easy as clicking a button
