You do with 480 what most do with 600 - Can't knock that, it doesn't matter what kind of fuel you prefer!

I like methanol and ethanol for it's cooling effect, which is much better than race gas. This is extremely good when you push turbos past their efficiency. I am particularly fond of ethanol because it's cooling effect is almost as good as methanol, but it's safe to use with a standard fuel pump. E100 is up to 115 octane.

+1 for boost.

+1 and my engine has been sucking it down for over a month or more now and I love everything about it but the smell. With all the dyno pulls,street pulls and 2 good races I have only used 5 gallons if that. I bought 10gal, waisted 2.5 cause of leaks, I have a full tank and 3gal left.

As far as it being safe, this engine made it past 106 miles unlike my last one and sees ethonol every day, about 3600 miles past to be exact. I guess some of that has to do with having a good shop build your engine too
