E55 AMG on Ethanol-Meth; 600rwhp BMW M5
Chawkins beast on E85/Meth


The graph represents installing the meth kit only, no tuning was done. The green graph was with the 195mm on E85 only, and the red graph is with a 188mm on E85/Meth.

In conclusion, we picked up 17rwhp be adding the kit, untuned, and final numbers are 532rwhp on our Dynamics Dyno. The a/f went pretty rich with it sitting at 11.0 right now.

We first have to take care of a couple smalls things, then we plan to pull some fuel out, and run it around 11.5-11.7 range. We will release the tuning numbers in this thread once done.

Nice increase.

I'd make sure there is a failsafe alarm or something similar in case pump dies, runs low on fluid, etc.

Once we finished adjusting the a/f, we will make sure there is a cushion there, should something fail with the meth kit.

I would be interested to see how the graph changes once it is tuned for it, ice in the tank, and spraying nitrous onto the front mount.

Would make even more of a difference with pump 93 or 91 gas. E85 is already a good cooling mod lol
