    Did you have to replace much of the fuel system for that? I've been pondering switching myself, if I can find large enough injectors.

    I didn't change anything in the fuel system. Theres a debate over whether you need to get rid of all the rubber pieces in the fuel system or not since ethanol can break down the rubber and cause it to flake off, but in reading about other subie owners that are running E85 w/ no changes for a couple of years with no problems, I'd say that I'm willing to try w/o making any changes for a while.

            24 town, 34 highway 2.0L 200whp, 150tq.......and all the comfort of driving in leather too 😉

            P.S. Yes, it is a low torqu 4banger, but the light weightness of it makes up for it. Just ask Shane on his lotus on how the light weight makes his car handle;)

                                  What about the idea of a Carburated V-8 making over 40mpg.
                                  Sad to say it has happened before most on this site were born.
