Turbo vehicle + E85 + E85 tune = at least 50 WHP
E85 > Meth injection every time due to increased timing capability and additional cooling
More info and dyno results to prove it out:

Why else would you want E85, also bigger turbos was part of the initial question, bigger turbos = tune.
For the E85 question from others here's my best answer:
If you had enough fueling to support E85 even on the stock platform or an E85 mix (E50 is fine) you can pick up a ton of HP with no other changes than a tune and E85 or E50. You will need a bigger DI pump at least, for BIGGER turbos and down the road injectors as well.
I will be going down this path very shortly, just waiting on the call from the dealer to pick up the FX4 ecoboost that we're trading our FX2 in on. No reason to have big HP in an FX2 if I just encounter wheel spin any time I try and floor it in 1st or 2nd gear.

4x4 makes launching this thing much easier. Good choice on the upgrade. There's a lot more to launching the 2wd and combating the axle wrap. Soooo technically I need both to run e85.
I voted for the pump as its feasible in my short term goals.

I am in like flynn for both... I would bolt a pair of GT28rs to the truck in a heartbeat. nothing huge but an easy 550 hp and still streetable and capable of towing. These things do like 6xx on the S4 2.8L when pushed. We have higher compression and more displacement.

What? E85 doesn't give you more power... No matter how much you roll that turd in sugar, you still can't call it a donut.
But, I'd say turbos and run regular fuel, as always.
Seriously, E85 is a joke. You lose power and fuel economy. I've used it, I've towed with it, I've driven several tanks of it back to back, it's garbage.

I'm game for injectors and a higher volume HPFP. Got E85 20 minutes from the house. And I know its good stuff cause I've tested it and there is a 1200whp Chevy turbo LS motor pickup truck that fuels up his cans and fuel cell there also.
So any new updates?
