It's an interesting concept, because the repercussions of running lean means significant torque is lost. The idea of reducing boost to gain power might seem foreign but nonetheless that would be the effect. I don't expect ethanol to have exactly the same consumption loop as petrol but it would be fairly close.
My assumptions were based on the Dyno sheets that were posted. The AFR's listed ranged from 15 to 10.5, which is a gasoline / petrol AFR ratio based off lambda. After some quick napkin math, here's the best gas AFR range to get max power from E85.

E85 AFR - Lambda - Gas AFR
Max Power Rich: 6.975 - 0.71 - 10.50
Max Power Lean: 8.4687 - 0.87 - 12.75

Very nice numbers sir! Nice to see E85 being used on other platforms.

Boy that's quick spooling. Our last one was with a 500r and stock ports. Made 399 torque on 24
Psi on 110 octane. But it was conservative.

Sorry to hijack but do you guys tune on Dyno Dynamics machines at all, I thought that I saw some printouts scanned by you of cars on DD dyno's.

Its just so hard to correlate American HP figures here in Oz especially when they are on machines that we do not use here.

Anyways awesome figures, car is an animal

The run was finished @ 481rwhp/396rwhp @ 22psi, and fuel pressure was later raised to 5 bar. It also survived the weekend of roadcourse racing.

Does that graph not show 30psi at 4,000rpm not the 22psi?
