I know that station -- filled up there when returning a rental earlier this year. Wildly overpriced. Plus, as in the rest of NJ, the attendant has to pump your gas -- that must be fun when putting in an E60 blend.

I don't buy gas there and stopped mixing altogether as I run full e85 map now with TBI and st2 lpfp. As far as price it certainly could be higher for ethanol as there really is no competition there at all in the area. It's actually pretty low at $1.85 a gallon. For race fuel,are you kidding me. It's around $ 0.50 cheaper than 93 gas in the area. Plus it's actually 85% ethanol = Priceless

If it was actuall e85 not e54 then you would need only 5.5 gallons of e85 and 8 gallons of 91 gas to get e40 mix. |

Sorry, I didn't know you had PI or TBI (ya gots no sig). But just a stage 2 LPFP, yes. My HPFP would tank if I ran straight E85 trying to make the power I make on my E60 tune. So with just the stage 2 LPFP, of course I can run all E85, I just have to run a more conservative tune.
