I have a piggy back ECU installed that makes my Celica "flexfuel". It runs way better on E85 than pump gas.

This mod is great because it increases performance and saves me a bunch of money on fuel. E85 ethanol pumps are going up everywhere, and if you have one near you, I would consider this upgrade a necessity.

E85 is 105 octane. Thats why it will increase performance, even on a 5sfe with no mods. The owners manual "recommends" 91 octane so you know that higher octane is going to increase performance. The easiest way to increase performance is to increase fuel quality, and this mod will save you money at the same time.

Ya you guys are getting the shaft in general out there. I think stations are expanding a lot faster than people realize, but this still is a regional thing. If you can use it though, its a lot better than buying a new car (prius) because you cant afford the gas.
