dont forget the power increase as well. Its basically a free performance gain when using e85 compared to gas. Just requires some support mods to make it work

looks pretty cool..i'll give it 12-18 months of use on other peoples STi's before I make the switch.. assuming I can get it from a local station easily.
the reason it requires more fuel is because ethanol has less energy in a given unit of mass then gasoline does. Its more efficient because its a cleaner and cooler burning fuel.
