CA E85? CA? single turbo?

i am trying to fined out if it would be good to run e85.

first off i live in CA bad smog regs. i have heard roomers that if u do a full e85 setup u no longer need to smog is this true?

also as far as running it on a single turbo setup is it more reliable?

and one last one what all is needed to do a full e85 on my 93 rx7?
my research shows i just need an aftermarket fuel pump, injectors, and a tune. what ells is needed?

I've never heard of becoming smog exempt when running E85. You might just want to call you local smog station and ask them. I've been curious about this as well, but doubt it.

I'm not sure about Stockton, but up here in Sacramento we have over 60+ stations, and really only 3 major highways that run through the city. E85 is everywhere.

Yes, single turbo is more reliable, but is ILLEGAL in California. With that said, many people here in CA have single turbo swaps.

running e85 will not make you smog exempt, specially for a street driven, factory produced vehicle, unless you get certified by a referee
