Who the *F* wants to go to Lake City for their fuel? Especially for a daily driver?

If you really want alcohol, save the hassle and do pump gas with an alcohol injection setup under boost. You can buy alcohol by the drum locally.

Nowhere near the same. e-85 is 106 octane alone. Running alky injection only lowers the air charge does nothing for octane.
Who said anything about being a daily? My car will be trailered only

how in the hell is the motor going to know whether the alcohol came from the fuel tank or from another tank in the trunk?

alky DEFINITELY raises the octane, unless you are spraying it on the outside of the motor for some reason?
